:: Release Notes:
::
::
:: Mech Synthetics Real name is Nic Phelan. He was born in
:: Anchorage Alaska, in December of 84, and grew up in a valley
:: town called Wasilla. Nic started to play the drums in 5th
:: grade in the school band class, and in 7th grade began
:: playing the drum set and jamm'n with guitar players.
::
:: In 10th grade the 1st real band was formed where Nic played
:: drums in a band called Ariel descent. This band didn't really
:: begin playing shows untill 2 years later, where their band
:: helped explode the valleys need for music. They at one time
:: packed over 300 people into a small coffee shop with a fire
:: code limit of 100, all while playing with fire and chainsaws.
::
:: Later that year their band was asked if one of their songs
:: could be used on a snowmachine video, they were to play at
:: the release of this video at the Sullivan Arena, which is the
:: largest venue you can book in Alaska.
::
:: But tense musicians took the stage and stress added with a
:: poor sound check made for a bad show. Afterwards words flew,
:: and names were called and fights almost broke out. Thus the
:: end of Ariel Descent.
::
:: But Nic wasn't going to give up there. Along with co-writing
:: some of the lyrics for the band, Nic wanted to continue to
:: write lyrics, but found he couldn't unless written to music.
:: He then left America to go teach English in China for a year.
::
:: Douring this time he bought a guitar there and began learning
:: how to play. Teaching only on the weekend freed him up to
:: play every weekday, and he soon began to write his own songs.
:: When comming back to America, with almost no money, he began
:: to search for musicians, and began to recored the songs he
:: wrote in China as a demo to pass out to other musicians to
:: say, "Hey this is what I do, if you are interested and want
:: to be in a band..."
::
:: While recording new songs were written, and the demo cd was
:: slowly turning into a full lenght cd. And never finding
:: anyone who was serious enough to be brought on to the project
:: Nic Phelan was left alone.
::
:: All the songs were recorded at Frozen lake studio's and then
:: taken back to his house where Nic spent night and day for
:: over a year mixing and playing with sound files. He recorded
:: all his own guitar, bass, and did the vocal tracks. The drums
:: (cause he was short on money) were taken from old recordings
:: from Ariel Descent, and then beefed up with electronic drums
:: to make the sound fuller.
::
:: Some of the songs, being written in his first year of playing
:: guitar, were kind of simple and he felt they needed more to
:: them, so he called the help from his old Ariel Descent lead
:: guitar player Chris Koybelnyk. Chris helped him then lay down
:: 9 tracks with sweet solos and melodys that helped make the
:: songs compleat.
::
:: Mech Synthetic, is an Industrial rock band, ranging from
:: songs that are a bit slower to songs that are fast and heavy,
:: with a little screeming here and there.
