Detroit pioneer Robert Hood will join Rekids label with a 14-track album titled Mirror Man this November.
Mirror Man is Hood’s first album for Radio Slave‘s label, and it follows a busy few years making music and touring as Floorplan alongside Lyric, his daughter. We’re told that the record spans minimalist techno, downtempo, and house music, and that it showcases his innate knack for crafting paired back but intricate rhythms that deliver punch and soul.
A founding member of Underground Resistance with Mad Mike Banks and Jeff Mills, 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 1994s Minimal Nation on Axis was a definitive album that cemented Hood’s reputation as one of the greats to emerge from the Motor City. Since then, Hood has gone on to release on Tresor, Peacefrog, Music Man Records, Dekmantel, and more.
