If it's Monday it must be Marc, music and Musee Mecanique.

Musee Mecanique take their name from a collection of vintage arcade games, player pianos and novelties to be found on San Francisco's Fisherman's Wharf.

The band themselves are based in the musical hotbed that is Portland, Oregon. Here their home studio on the banks of the Willamette River is appropriately full of interesting instruments antiques and second-hand flotsam. It's a place where tack pianos, trumpets, musical saws and garage sale Casio keyboards mix with forgotten amateur landscape paintings, broken 1930s-era radios and hand-cranked ice cream makers.

Band leaders Sean Ogilvie and Micah Rabwin are old friends of the show. As well as visiting the Riley studio in their own right they also occasionally double up as the backing band for another Riley favourite Laura Gibson. Joined on record by multi-instrumentalists Matthew Rubin Berger, Jeffery Boyd and Brian Perez, their beautiful debut album 'Hold This Ghost' came out in February. We like it.
