Mechanical Heartbeat is a solo artist band, making alternative, dance, and electronic music that packs a lot of punch in their lyrics.
Every song is crafted by the hands of Kat, who has music up on iTunes and hundreds of followers. The switch from Kat to Mechanical Heartbeat was heartbreaking to her, but there are so many artists with the name Kat--she felt unoriginal. And that's when Mechanical Heartbeat was created.
All of the music you hear under this name is made on a computer, but the lyrics and the notes that ring out over the pulsing music is all from the heart of Kat. No autotune is used, except for when she wants a certain feel towards the song, like the song Robot by Kat. The autotune is all the way up so she sounds like a robot, until the very end of the song where she just belts the notes out. Although it does seem appropriate for the band name, she doesn't believe autotune is the way to gain fans, but through the raw imperfections in the artists' voices.
Give a listen to her on the music page and then decide whether you like her sound or not. It changes in each song, or so she tries to make it change a bit. Performances have started, so check back often to go see her in concert (at a discounted price!).
