Engineer, producer, and musician Martin Bisi has been recording bands for over 35 years at B.C. Studios in the Gowanus section of Brooklyn and has a new collaborative record out called BC 35: The 35 Year Anniversary of BC Studio with members of many of the bands he recorded in the 80s and 90s such as Swans, Cop Shoot Cop, Foetus, Alice Donut, and Live Skull. Martin called into Free Association to talk about the record and we played some tracks from his long history as an engineer and producer recording some of the landmark underground rock records.
