In the ensuing year they would continue to build an underground profile in the city, in spite of the fact that none of their recordings existed online.

Titled The Lower East Suite, the recordings that make up the releases are taken from Onyx's performances over the past year. Storefronts, bars, and street corners act as both venues and studios for Onyx Collective. Many of the highly atmospheric songs from The Lower East Suite Pt. 1take their names from the addresses where they were recorded: "Forsyth 1," "175 Canal," "Market."
