\n25th February 2015: Feedback Open Mic ft Kenta Hayashi & Darren Ashley @ The Bee Publika \/ February 2015 Edition<\/a>. Here’s Reza Salleh, emcee and organizer!<\/p>\n


\nFirst up: Cheryl & Gabriel<\/b>.<\/p>\n


\nAalex Termizi<\/b>.<\/p>\n


\nIsaac & Anatasha<\/b>.<\/p>\n


\nAz Samad<\/b>.<\/p>\n


\nKirsten Long<\/b>.<\/p>\n


\nPeter & Markiza<\/b>.<\/p>\n


\nPeter Hassan Brown just released his album, Blues<\/i>.<\/p>\n


\nI got one, because my picture was used on the back cover with my permission, and credited to me, too! The album is, to my non-sound-engineer ears, well-produced, and has amazing clarity. I like how Peter sounds far more cynical and observant, his biting lyrics and social commentary cutting through the mix. It’s something I am aware of when I see him live singing about open mics and about activist stuff, but it’s just clearer on the CD for some reason.<\/p>\n


\nHere’s the original, straight from JPG (I’d normally upload the RAW-processed one, but Peter got the JPGs that I passed to Az Samad<\/a> the same night at his Open Mic @ The Venue #8 \u2013 Hosted by Az Samad<\/a>.)<\/p>\n


\nHis wife, Markiza, who he affectionately calls in public, wife<\/i>.<\/p>\n


\nFirst featured act, Darren Ashley<\/b>, is a good schoolboy.<\/p>\n


\nHe invites a random member of the audience to make a random sound that will be used in a looper song!<\/p>\n


\nCrazy electropop.<\/p>\n


\nSecond featured act, Kenta Hayashi<\/b>.<\/p>\n


\nAmazing fingerstyle harmonics and sounds, complemented with a looper!<\/p>\n

After him was The SXS<\/b>, who I missed.<\/p>\n


\nSpooky Wet Dreams<\/b>.<\/p>\n


\nSaved By The Belle<\/b>.<\/p>\n


\nThe crowd that came to support them!<\/p>\n


\nThe Message<\/b>.<\/p>\n


\nI loved that Jack White fuzz sound that Syakir got blaring out of his guitar!<\/p>\n


\nThe Backseat Affair<\/b>.<\/p>\n


\nMarie<\/b>.<\/p>\n


\nRiki, Kenta & Az Samad<\/b>.<\/p>\n


\nReza came up for a freestyle jam, to which he rapped.<\/p>\n


\nFikri Azam<\/b>.<\/p>\n
