Robert Hood on minimal and Fabric 39

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.

The sky has a 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.

I can’t wait for this CD to arrive in my mailbox. FabricLive 38 by DJ Craze is also an excellent release.
