How YACHT fed their old music to the machine and got a killer new album
The dance punk band YACHT has always felt like a somewhat techy act since debuting in the early 2000s. They famously recorded instrumental versions of two earlier albums and made them available for artists under a Creative Commons license at the Free Music Archive. Post-Snowden, they wrote a song called "Party at the NSA" and donated proceeds to the EFF. One album cover of theirs could only be accessed via fax initially (sent through a Web app YACHT developed to ID the nearest fax to groups of fans; OfficeMax must've loved it). Singer Claire L. Evans literally wrote the book (Broad Band) on female pioneers of the Internet.
