Wijambu Music

The Wijambu recordings (prior to 2011) are all live to tape with no overdubs. They were recorded through two ambient microphones (SM57s) set up in the center of the room.  Consequently, performances and recording quality vary. Beginning 2011, recordings are digital with some overdubs. Beginning 2014, recordings are digital to a 24 track. Generally, recordings were made to document our fun; therefore, the emphasis was on having a great time and not necessarily a great recording/performance.
