The Velvet Melvin (Live room recording @BIS)-The 1201

Saa wanted to capture a live jam session with some of his best friends to see what they could discover. 12 tracks over 2 sessions I find myself going back to this one just because it makes me feel like I'm up mauka in a coffee shack. Eating, communing and hangin with friends and family.

The Enemy Is You- Native Records @ BIS Live room recording

Summey needed drum tracks for a project he and some friends in the mainland were doing. Dyla Kai and BIS made it happen. 11 channels were used, including a matching pair of MXL 990 condenser over-heads, SM57 upper and lower snare, 2 kick mics including Jims Yamaha Subkick and a Beta 91A, 3 clip-on mics plus a Beta 52A on toms, and a MXL 991 condenser on the HH. We are pretty happy with the way they came out.
