    The DFA (dfarecords.com) machine—cranking out new-new-wave hits that occasionally leak from the cool kids to the club kids—breaks down a little when it comes to YACHT (www.myspace.com/yacht). Newly a twosome, with the formerly solo Jona Bechtolt enlisting Portland artist and musician Claire L. Evans to sing along, the LP See Mystery Lights is their debut on James Murphy’s indie-electronic label. (They were signed last year, after recording “Summer Song” as an ode to the LCD Soundsystem frontman and DFA Records ringmaster.)
