MUSICAL GENIUS (who might be coming to South Africa sooner then you think)





An amazing musical genius of electronic building up of sound, has seen Jona Bechtolt crafting music that is beyond fantastically fantasy driven, and amazing. Take some time to hear what the boy has to say...

"YACHT smells wonderful. I must say, all the time he spent in our bus, it was as if a cool breeze was blowing through my mind. and good songs, too!" -- James Murphy, LCD Soundsystem

"YACHT is a true renaissance man, feel his magic zap you with its lightning bolt made of awesome" -- Architecture in Helsinki

"Positive energy rainbow dome music from a next-generation west coast healer" -- Dave Longstreth, The Dirty Projectors

"YACHT = megaphysical." -- Devendra Banhart

"Being indie rock's Timbaland ain't easy." -- VIBE Magazine

"Oh, man, we love this kid." -- NME

"No one combines giddy bubblegum melodies with clinically precise programming quite like Bechtolt." -- Entertainment Weekly

"After spinning Yacht’s new one, I Believe in You. Your Magic Is Real, we are prepared to echo the album title’s assessment with respect to the artist himself" -- Time Out New York
