ROBERT HOOD - Archives (EP) Slate I

ROBERT HOOD - Archives (EP) Slate IROBERT HOOD revives an early alias for this rare 'Archives' set, a tribute to his French friends at Logistic Records. 'Trade', 'In Basements' and 'The Construct' were forged in Hood's home factory around the time of Underground Resistance's earliest vinyl revolutions, with 'In Basements' standing out as a particularly fine piece of generative percussion over ribbing kicks.

Organic drums and pricking 303 lines define a peak-time vibe that locks the floor while moving through the gears

subterranean cuts and a hypnotic Vand remix that pushes the hypnotic core into trancier territory

Essential piece of history as sampled by Pete Rock / InI for the classic "Grown Man Sport"

polyrhythmic soul

This remastered Tresor weapon pairs jacking 909 percussion with haunting Speak & Spell synthesis for a definitive dose of Detroit techno history

Standout cuts like 'Laws Of Nature' and 'Bring The Fire' showcase a master at work

A masterclass in hypnotic Chicago atmospheres

street-sharpened club pressure that’ll test the arid catacoustics of any serious sound system

looped synth stabs and chiming melodies that defined a generation

Ross 154 heads for the outer reaches on the eight-minute "Earth to Our Friends" and Leo Anibaldi closes with the cavernous

all pressed on limited 7" vinyl in a die-cut sleeve
