"Portland-based producer yung bae taps influences that are as varied as they are danceable: disco, funk, r&b and even japanese “city pop.” these largely sampled grooves — obscure and otherwise — manifest as undeniably vintage sounds presented in gleaming, modern electronic trappings."

As you might guess from the name, Yung Bae is a musical guilty pleasure. For the past several years, the Los Angeles-based producer has steadily released funky, sample-heavy disco tracks, complete with anime artwork and names like “…so i wrote her this song and we drank monster and watched adventure time” and “she said yes and i danced in the snow.” It’s the type of music you slyly hit play on while shoving your phone in your pocket so the person next to you on the bus won’t question your taste.
