Ralph Cunneen, Marcel Stxm - Street Funk

The globally revered house and techno project Floorplan continue to build their relationship with Classic with explosive club release, ‘What A Friend’. Following the success of previous releases on Luke Solomon’s imprint, like UK radio favourite ‘We Give Thee Honor’ or esoteric club track ‘Like Dat’, Robert and Lyric Hood continue to dominate both festival and club stages globally, including Brunch Elektronik in Barcelona, The Warehouse Project in Manchester and Igloofest in Montreal. ‘What A Friend’ exemplifies Robert Hood’s legacy as an early member of Detroit’s Underground Resistance; vocal samples are chopped and dispersed brazenly over hard four-on-the-floor beats, creating club music that is sonically arresting, rhythmically enthralling and bursting with the attitude expected from Detroit’s legendary club scene.

For the second release in Gudu’s new Club Gudu release series, we’re psyched to welcome Melbourne’s William Kiss to the label - with some heavyweight features in tow.

William is one of those artists who just gets how to make tracks work at both small club and festival stage level, with an well-studied knack for oversized basslines and samples that just stick with you from the first listen. Previously releasing music on the likes of RSPX, Bush and Carl Cox’s 23rd Century label and supported by Solomon, Carl Craig, Honey Dijon and Pete Tong, his tracks have been a staple of Peggy Gou’s sets for some time now.

On his first release for Gudu, William teams up with house music royalty in Todd Terry and Roland Clark, reimagining their classic ‘The Preacher’ for 2024 dancefloors. Elsewhere, ‘Two Step’ gives him a chance to get his shuffle on with rolling, quick-footed drums and ‘The Healer’ closes the EP on an seriously epic note - handle this one with care! 

Tracklist:
01. House Machine (feat. Todd Terry & Roland Clark)
02. The Healer
03. Two Step

William Kiss - House Machine (feat. Todd Terry & Roland Clark)

Last Magpie debuts three finely tuned deep grooves on Warehouse Music. A three track EP that is emotive and versatile in delivery. ‘Spirit’ takes flight with a downtempo dub, perfectly blending sun-soaked pads, delayed synths and a continuous broken beat rhythm. ‘Dance Mix’ takes a heavier hitting, club ready approach. Last up on the EP is ’Move Your Body’, a collaboration with Warehouse Music head honcho; Mella Dee - a low end chugger for the heads down, no nonsense crew.

Known as a half step
but yours is a full climb

pumpin' the junk into my mind!

FLOORPAN "THE MASTER'S PLAN" (CLASSIC MUSIC):
https://cmc.lnk.to/cmcd141d

Before I got into this music I wanted to be an originator ; I wanted to be original".
Founding member of the legendary group Underground Resistance as a 'Minister Of Information' with ‘Mad’ Mike Banks & Jeff Mills, his seminal works on Jeff Mill's Axis and his very own M-Plant imprint paved the way for a wave of stripped-down dancefloor minimalism that directed much of techno's path throughout the late Nineties.
Robert Hood makes minimal Detroit techno with an emphasis on soul and experimentation over flash and popularity. 

"Growing up in Detroit, I grew up with Motown in the house - a lot of Motown and Philadelphia soul, artists like Marvin Gaye of course and Curtis Mayfield. I remember Isaac Hayes, the soundtrack from ‘Shaft’ had come out. My father was a jazz musician; he played piano, trumpet and drums. My mother was in an R’n’B group.
We listened to a lot of Motown - in fact, my grandfather’s first cousin is Berry Gordy.
"I was influenced by my father - I wanted to play trumpet like he did."
Robert's father tragically died when he was just 6. The photo of Robert siting down holding a trumpet is his fathers.
"I had to beg my grandmother to let me borrow the trumpet to take a picture with it"

In the early 90's he began to concentrate on his own production 'Vision EP', the 'Riot EP' and X-102 were big stepping-stones for him as they were the first releases he worked 100% on his own. The X-101 to X-102, were Waveform Transmission projects with Mills for Tresor. He slowly progressed to work more and more on his own, but collaberated on some of the first Axis releases with label owner Jeff Mills as H&M (Hood & Mills) with ‘Tranquilizer EP’ and ‘Drama’.

He soon decided it was time for him to start his own label to focus on what was in his soul musically. M-Plant started in ’94. I had developed this “grey area” sound - what I mean by that is that in Detroit, even when the sun is out, there’s something in the atmosphere. I don’t know if its pollution or whatever, but the sky has that grey haze over it. It’s got to be something from the industrial factories there. I’d never really heard a sound like that before and it came from a Roland Juno - it was a chord sound that really went along with my depiction of what Detroit was at that time. A lot of buildings were abandoned and there was a lot of lifelessness in the city, especially downtown. The M-Plant, in minimalism, kind of reflected that. I remember thinking of Detroit like a museum. You know, like a work of art standing still, suspended in time. There wasn’t a whole lot of activity going on.

Releasing singles such as "Internal Empire,", “The Protein Valve” "Music Data," and "Moveable Parts", "The Pace", more recently "Range", "Alpha" and that isn't even touching his other monikers Floorplan, Monobox, The Vision, etc.
"M-Plant is what I've always wanted to hear: the basic stripped down, raw sound. Just drums, basslines and funky grooves and only what's essential. Only what is essential to make people move. I started to look at it as a science, the art of making people move their butts, speaking to their heart, mind and soul. “It's a heart-felt rhythmic techno sound. M-Plant is just M. minimal. “

Although his desire to remain underground has been replaced by an urge to reach a wider audience, mainly via his housier, disco, gospel moniker Floorplan with his daughter Lyric Hood,   Hood remains fiercely critical of artistic and economic movements destructive to inner-city communities and has combined his musical enterprises with outreach and social activist ends.
