about

The title of this album is not “Safety on highway R66” as many people thought, but “The Devil’s highway”. After I did my first 5 albums for Bunker, I was approached by Koen Lybaert of Starfish Pool from Belgium.
He had started his own label called Silver Recordings and asked several of the old Bunker artists to record an album on cd for his label. This was a pretty new concept for me: a cd? An actual sleeve? Tracks with titles? None of this I ever did before. So we had to come up with an idea, and I guess this variation on an actual newspaper headline was it.

The tracks are a transition between my oldskool analogue bunker style acid stuff, and the introduction of some more breaks and sampled beat style tracks. As I have explained in some of the other texts from albums here, I was looking for a new sound after all the acid records and for me this was a new field to explore, though most tracks are still 100% analogue style jams.

Koen selected the tracks and made a remix/edit of one, and the album was a cd only release. We did several gigs together, and I remember visiting him in Belgium for a weekend of jam sessions, I have no idea what happened to those. In the end, Silver, like so many labels, folded after a good number of releases. These files have all been recovered from the original DAT’s and remastered for your pleasure.
