What’s that song from that commercial?
L.A.-based “conceptual pop” group YACHT is releasing their new EP, Where Does This Disco? on Nov. 11, and their song “Works Like Magic” — which just started airing in an international Google Chromecast commercial — is exclusively premiering on Billboard.
“The science fiction writer J.G. Ballard once said that ‘sex times technology equals the future,'” YACHT tells Billboard. “We argue that sex and technology coexist in our present: we touch, we push buttons, we seek intimacy in screens. When we connect, it works like magic. ‘Works Like Magic’ is the first song we’ve written with our close collaborators, and bandmates, Rob ‘Bobby Birdman’ Kieswetter and Jeffrey Brodsky.”
