Existential furloughs of the adventuresome and/or substance abuse varieties are relatively common practice among artists of the world; spawned out of a conscious effort to try and stave off things like uniformity, monotony, and existential sterility (to name but a few of the relentless truisms that occupy this bastardly, soul-devouring universe).
Case in point, we all remember when The Beatles went to Rishikesh in the late sixties, ate a bunch of hemp seeds with the Maharishi, and came back with what was essentially The White Album, right?
It happens to the best of ‘em.
For Patrick McDermott —the creative driving force behind ambient operation North Americans — inspiration came this past year while on a personal sojourn to the remote Sawtooth wilderness; one of the few remaining areas of the U.S. where you’re more likely to encounter a brown bear than a Starbucks. The trip procreated a variety of ambient soundscapes that would evolve into North Americans’ third full-length LP, which is due for release September 14 via Driftless Recordings.
The record, entitled Going Steady, is a 9-track aggregate of “meditative guitar stylings” set over a drone of unobtrusive synth ambience; a tangible deviation from Patrick’s previously robust, gain-heavy releases.
“This record was dreamed up in those moments where nothing else matters outside of what’s directly around you and the company you keep,” says McDermott. “For me this happens most often in nature, and while this isn’t some new, grand notion, I felt it was still a feeling worth exploring — especially in 2018.”
Going Steady employs the likes of Meg Duffy (Hand Habits, Kevin Morby) on guitar, with Julianna Barwick contributing subtle undertones to the delicate synth ambience. You can preorder the LP right over here, and in addition to the title track, be sure to check out brand new video for the freshly-released tune “Alice Lake” down below, which features Cloud Nothings’ Dylan Baldi on guitar.

A Redesigned Bitcoin.org One of our goals in 2018 has been to modernize the look and feel of Bitcoin.org. Each day, tens of thousands of new users come to Bitcoin.org to learn how to get started using the currency and technology. The site has grown exponentially in popularity as Bitcoin adoption has increased. Last year alone, there were over 30 million visitors to Bitcoin.org. These visitors viewed the site’s pages over 200 million times. Many of these pages are often the first results on search engines for bitcoin-related phrases and terms. As traffic and engagement has increased, however, the design has become very dated. In fact, the current look and feel of the site has pretty much remained the same for ~5 years, going all the way back to 2013. As a result, a large amount of effort and attention has gone into a recent redesign project, that’s getting closer to complete. After holding a community vote on various design options, the community selection has been extend...

Devil’s Hole – Death Valley, California Around the world there are legends of caves and crevices that become named “Devil’s Hole” for a myriad of reasons, but all of them are dark ones. Let’s explore just some of the Devil’s Holes found in the United States. Arkansas Devil’s Hole Cave LINK: O ne day, an indeterminate number of years ago, the owner of the land where the cave is located decided to check out the place. He climbed down a rope about 200 feet to a ledge where the shaft narrows to a point that can only be crawled through. He suddenly heard a vicious hissing from the darkness, perhaps like a large lizard would do, and he made a hasty retreat. Some time later, he and some men from town dropped a flatiron tied to a rope to the same place in the cave. They heard a hissing sound and the rope was pulled hard. When they pulled it back up, they found the flatiron had been badly bent and scored with scratches and teeth marks. They next tried a stone and th...
