This past Wednesday evening, we were on our way home from Christmas party #1 with Matt’s coworkers and decided to stop in and check out Mechanix at Steve’s Bar Room. The music was just getting going when we got in there, and it didn’t disappoint. You come straight off the elevator and right into the mix — the DJ booth is literally in your face, with all the various musicians on top of that. Billed as “classical music, jazz improvization and underground electronic music, the duo’s live ‘musican vs. DJ’ aural hybrid is both organic and original…” we weren’t quite sure what to expect, but for me, anything with live drums is usually worth it. We didn’t stay too long since this was already our second destination of the evening, but it looks like it’s a regular jam for Wednesday evenings? (hard to tell from their website?), but I would definitely check it out again.
