HIGHWAY (LP)

Hey Mother Death is the meeting of Laurence Strelka. Their music is spontaneously composed and recorded. The recordings literally capture the first moments Denma and Laurence sat down with instruments together. Although Denma and Laurence had no preconceptions going into the project, their work demonstrates an intense direction and connection that is both shockingly free and wild. Hey Mother Death recorded Highway to vintage tape and mixed it with Bill Skibbe at the Key Club Recording Studio in Michigan, on Sly Stone's Flickinger console from There's A Riot Going On. The album was mastered in London, England by Mandy Parnell (Bjork). Highway is a dubwise, spoken word album embedded with deep soul and cinematic overtones. The hard-earned four tracks on Highway are rich in analog warmth; they lay heavy in the tape, pulsing along at an easy pace. Sensual threats are whispered. Guitars weep. Bass and drums stay steady. This is weathered fire music that crawled through spirit, it's creators, and now into you.
