Honest working mans music, for honest working man and woman. A mix of simplicity and roots styled song writing to help ponder the more complex thoughts in life.
 
Jonathan has been playing/tinkering and writing music since his hands would let him, "a jack of some and master of none" enjoys taking the blue collar life style and bringing it to a less back breaking environment through the ease of listening. Forever trying to understand the surroundings of the universe we are in "The Mechanic" aims to write music that will share both thoughts on our ever changing environments and the utter nonsense that happens in day to day life. "Things these days happen fast and though the multitasking hard drive burning super sonic sound machine sub woofer banging beats and stylings of music today are sometimes fresh fun and  stimulating, It doesn't hurt to just sit down with what ever you feel like making noise with clicking the red button and seeing what happens at the end."

So please take a moment after your done mowing the lawn or working a long hard day.... grab yourself a beer, a chair maybe some unmentionables or take a drive and let The Mechanic try to help ease your mind.


Running With Yinzers began as a home recording project for songwriter Collin Rice in his Pittsburgh, PA apartment. Most of the debut album was written and recorded in Rice’s apartment in Squirrel Hill during 2013 and he plays all the instruments on several of the tracks. The songs took on new life after the band’s move to the Philadelphia area as more and more complex instrumentation was added to those original recordings. As a professional philosopher, Rice finds ways of repeatedly delivering lines that are simultaneously engaging, insightful, and amusing such as “they give me pills, as if there’s a cure, for being unsure” or “this building is really quite unappealing, like a recipe that just says salt to taste”. Indeed, Rice’s continuous flow of whimsical insights consumes the listener’s focus throughout the album. Adding to the lyrical interest, the underlying music also shows great diversity, drawing on influences from Yo La Tengo, Pavement, The Clash, The Velvet Underground, The Talking Heads, Dave Matthews Band, The Strokes, Robyn Hitchcock, Parquet Courts, and others. Their self-titled debut album includes a variety of meticulously layered tracks whose low-fi recording style helps keep their delivery direct and genuine. Some tracks are assertive and rhythmically driven; others are tender and intimate. Before the band relocated to Philly, “The Sans Song” had already begun to grow in popularity. It’s a pacey distorted rock number with whimsical lyrics throughout that demand the listener’s attention. This is the most consistently delivered style among a collection of 11 tracks that span an impressive range of genres, tones, and themes. In addition to The Sans Song, “A Place Where People Live” is an assemblage of catchy acoustic guitar riffs (a la Dave Matthews) combined with Talking Heads inspired lyrics (i.e. it’s a song about buildings and people). The song ends with a catchy groove and saxophone solo that will have listeners reaching for the repeat button. Continuing the album’s playful tone, “David Lynch” describes Rice’s experiences “stepping through the red curtain” while becoming obsessed with the characters in the television show Twin Peaks. The song provides a unique look at Rice’s reaction to the strange darkness of Lynch’s world. Adding still more diversity to the album is “Sometimes I Miss the 80s”, a laser-shooting synthesizer romp that critiques our ever-growing dependence on technology and the desire to “take you back in time”. These songs are mixed in with several other tracks in which the band explores an impressive range of music that is sure to provide something for everyone to connect with. The result is a debut album that is both musically and lyrically unique and continues to entertain even after repeated listens. The band is currently recording their second full-length album in Philadelphia with an anticipated release in August or September of 2017.

Jockeying discs since 1999, kapsil aka John Marzetti got his start in Philadelphia on a totally kick-ass pair of belt drive Geminis. After trainwrecking nerdy techstep for 2 years, he was visited in a dream by Marion Barry, who told him to go to DC and pursue his dreams of playing records in a dorm room and drinking plastic bottle bourbon. His dreams smashed to pieces in 2001, when Barry was arrested by the Potomac river with white powder under his nose, kapsil began making wonderfully inventive crapstep in fruity loops using thought provoking samples such as DMX shouting ‘ah-oh’. This period did not last long, culminating with a beer bottle being thrown at his head.

However, all was not as bad as it seemed. Somewhere along the way, kapsil learned that spinning records worked a whole lot better when a mixer was used. In addition, he found that turning the mute button off on the computer greatly improved production. Somewhere around this time, Al Gore invented the internet, allowing kapsil to learn how to use his software properly and spend every last dime he had on records. However, the honeymoon was short lived, and after an incident involving a debit card being declined for a $3 6-pack of Ice House, kapsil began to focus more on production. And ramen. It was during this time in which kapsil wrote the tracks for the Missing Link EP, released on Complex Logic Recordings in the spring of 2005. A mixture of many styles, this CD climbed to number 4 in the charts, of college radio, in the RPM section, for 2 weeks.

Between 2002 and 2005 kapsil played records for people in Washington, DC at Cafe Japone, WRGW radio events, and various house parties that ended in his alter ego, Reverend John Flex being released onto the unsuspecting masses (apparently someone else had visited him in a dream, suggesting that mixing 2 live crew and tiga remixes of sunglasses at night was a good idea). The good Reverend also enjoyed a brief stint of residency at a sports bar in Corolla, NC playing Finnish electro to guys in cut-off t-shirts requesting Ministry. After finishing up school in DC, kapsil moved to North Carolina, where he began his mildly legendary unsigned mix series using Ableton Live. Featuring artists from all over the world including, Japan, USA, UK, Lativa, and New Zealand among many others, these mixes have proved to be a very effective way of giving unsigned talent some well deserved exposure. Today kapsil produces DNB music on his computer using Renoise, Ableton Live, FL Studio, Sound Forge, and all sorts of VST effects and softsynths. His DJing is as varied as the facial expressions of Chuck Norris, often moving across the board in a single set, but tactfully skipping the wobble. Not to be pigeon-holed, his motto is ‘if it sounds good than it is good’.

Stars In Battledress is a British duo. Brothers Richard and James Larcombe write and perform delicate, otherworldly songs for harmony voices, piano and electric guitar. They've performed and recorded together and individually with William D Drake and the North Sea Radio Orchestra, but they began creating music together in childhood, ploughing an isolated furrow with hundreds of private cassette recordings. Initially they created collages from classical, folk and film and television music, crudely re-edited, reversed or slowed down, then learnt to perform and re-record the results, adding vocals and removing recognisable elements of the sources. In their twenties they rediscovered these "songs" and began to write new material in the style of what they heard. "In Droplet Form" is the second collection of this material.

The music of Stars In Battledress is uniquely English but never whimsical, poetic but never pretentious, defiantly unusual but never contrived, complex but never flash, trippy and dreamlike but with hardly a whiff of the sixties. Contradictions all, but in their precise, delicate music everything is where it should be. There are hints of Erik Satie, Syd Barrett, The Incredible String Band, Cardiacs and the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, but their style is truly theirs alone. There's something lonely and distant about it, but there's warmth and charm in their fragile world, and a gentle humour in the lyrics.

Despite the small forces this is a very varied album. "Hollywood Says So" is a lively acoustic stompalong, and "Hunt The Button" piles layers of hurdy-gurdy and tape hiss into a haunting farewell to cassette. The Larcombes even "rock" on TKS2, with unison voices hovering over a blaze of looped distortion which evokes something of their surprising forcefulness as a live act. From the fluttery delay and stretched vowels of "A Winning Decree" to the ghostly chimes of "The Women From The Ministry", the album gives off the musty air of a cobwebbed music room, and listening to it is like pressing a puzzled ear to the wall.
