Detroit pioneer Robert Hood joins Radio Slave’s Rekids label with a fourteen track album entitled ‘Mirror Man’ this November.

A founding member of Underground Resistance alongside Mad Mike Banks and Jeff Mills, Robert Hood is one of techno’s originators and his decorated career spans three decades. The American artist and his M-Plant label laid down the blueprint for minimal techno and 1994’s ‘Minimal Nation’ on Axis was a definitive album that further cemented Hood’s reputation as one of the greats to emerge from the Motor City.

Since then, Hood has gone on to release on many of electronic music’s best labels like Tresor, Peacefrog, Music Man Records, Dekmantel and more. After a busy few years making music and touring as Floorplan alongside his daughter Lyric, Hood now joins Rekids with an album showcasing his innate knack for crafting paired back but intricate rhythms that deliver punch and soul.

Opening with the cinematic ‘Through A Looking Glass Darkly’, the album quickly flows into precise, powerful four four. There’s mesmerising cuts such as ‘Fear Not’ with its throbbing bass and spectral vocals, the twisted and off-key ‘Run Bobby, Run’, not to mention muscular tracks designed to light up dancefloors like the machine driven ‘Ignite A War’ or the robust and rumbling ‘The Cure’.
Hood also breaks things up with downtempo and mind bending interludes, including the tranquil yet spooky ‘Black Mirror’ and the beatless and murky ‘Freeze’. Each of these are aural feasts that demonstrate his vast musical pallet.

From start to finish ‘Mirror Man’ is an education in finesse from one of techno’s most heroic artists, landing on one of electronic music’s most important labels.

London based producer, Kai van Dongen, has hugely impressed in a short space of time, with key releases dropping on labels like 1ØPILLS MATE, Truncate and BLK DRP.  On his debut for Eats Everything & Andres Campo’s EI8HT imprint, van Dongen tees up a trio of funky belters on the ‘Free Your Mind’ EP.

Lead track, ‘Free Your Mind’, cajoles some intense hypnotic sensations amongst its breakneck pace, incessant claps and rubbery synth stabs, whilst ‘The Sun’s Out’ doesn’t drop the energy levels for one second, as fierce and hardcore tones rain down over crisp and precision beats.   Closing this cracking release for EI8HT, van Dongen parades more of his techno chops on ‘We Will Chat’, and confirming that this is one artist who is going to go from strength to strength over the coming months.
