Yacht Fascism, 1980-86 (a playlist by Oliver Craner)

Weird how craner just made up a joke name for a playlist but it actually was a powerfully suggestive name for a genre and mindset that both I and our American cousins are increasingly adopting

i just preemtively claim everything that is generated here on the grounds that dissensus is just the externalisation of my brain

You knew it was coming! With SiriusXM's limited-run YachtRock channel burning up the airwaves, Yacht Rock hasn't been this popular since 1983. We're talking, of course, about the smooth sounds of Michael McDonald, Captain & Tennille, Christopher Cross, and other late 70s/early 80s soft rock giants. Music to chain-smoke to. Music to "not get civil rights" to. Music to play in the background while you spend idle days on a yacht. It's not necessarily music for the wealthy, but it is music for people who don't try very hard.
