Detroit Techno
Go deeper · 1981-1995

Hood's 1994 solo debut, made after his departure from Underground Resistance, pioneered minimal techno by stripping Detroit's sound to its essential working parts. The record made reduction and pure function into an aesthetic goal in itself, and its influence on producers worldwide has outlasted most of the records it was compared to on release.
