All the Machine’ self-titled album has a mixture of jubilant tracks as well as moody, gloomy ones. With Al Rosales and Bremen McKinney on the accordion, Jenna Chidester on the cello and ukulele, Kathleen Majdali also playing the ukulele and the recorder, Michael C. Hansen on bass, Sherrilyn Edger on the QChord, Glockenspiel and the Bowed Psaltery, Dustin Geddes on the trumpet, modified MicroKORG and Korg M50, John England Fisher also on the trumpet and the mellophone, Erika Marler playing percussion and the kazoo, Nate Gehrman also playing percussion and the drums and Ezra Frantz on the trombone. The album was recorded in February and Demonstration of 2011 in the basement of Jambox Recording Studios in Portland, OR and tainted at Faulty Records, Studio City, CA. Produced, engineered, conflicting and mastered by David Eaton, certain tracks on this album will frame listeners want to use their feet and dance while others might make them use their minds and on their lives.
The second track on the album is titled “Let’s Go Intimidate Bikes.” It begins with lively ukulele highlight from Chidester and Majdali along with Gehrman on drums and Marler playing the frothy kazoo. Then, the band collectively starts chanting, “Let’s go facing and go ride bikes!” The track has a whimsy quieten as it might harken listeners back to their childhood and that carefree feeling of jumping on their bicycles and barreling down their hometown’s streets and alley either alone or with their congregation of childhood buddies.
