about

Before Dawhud released his debut solo album, "Basement Sessions," he was DJing for a Seattle trip hop band, Detective Honey. Over the course of 3 years there were numerous recordings of demos and shows in the Seattle scene, but an album never really materialized.

The group's footprints were almost washed away with the swells of the tide. Social media was just getting its Myspace footing as members were going their separate ways in life and that was almost it... lost and only remembered as a footnote in conversations.

But that's also how it was rediscovered. Buried for well over a decade, Dawhud simply made a side comment about the band to a co-worker which inspired him find the CD-Rs of demos. What he found were practice sessions, studio sessions and live sets. Pieces of a puzzle, but only glimpses of a picture.

Over the next year Dawhud worked on this project in secret. Pulling apart the demos, practice sessions and live shows to rebuild the tracks in the form of the album that never materialized. Chopping, remixing, rerecording, editing, layering drums, recording string arrangements and every audio engineering trick Dawhud knew were part of the overhaul he did to finish this long lost project.

Intended originally as a Christmas gift to the band members in 2018, at long last Detective Honey's album "The Shattered Glass of Sweet Dreams" is finally available for everyone.
