Detroit's techno titan, Robert Hood, has donned many personas throughout his illustrious career, from the industrial grit of Monobox to the ethereal soundscapes of the Vision. Yet, none shine quite as brightly as Floorplan, a project that began as his solo venture and blossomed into a vibrant family collaboration.
Floorplan first carved its path in the late '90s and early 2000s, showcasing Hood's mastery of deep, hypnotic grooves. After a brief pause, the project roared back to life in 2010, unleashing critically acclaimed albums like "Paradise" and "Victorious." Each release pushed the boundaries of techno, showcasing Hood's relentless innovation and unwavering dedication to the genre.
But 2016 marked a pivotal shift. Lyric, Hood's talented daughter, stepped onto the scene, her vibrant energy infusing Floorplan with a renewed dynamism. This father-daughter duo became a force to be reckoned with, their combined creative prowess injecting an undeniable freshness into the project's sound.
Lyric's musicality, nurtured by years of observing her father's mastery, added a soulful touch to Floorplan's signature techno thump. Together, they explored uncharted sonic territories, weaving gospel influences, soulful vocals, and driving rhythms into their tapestry of sound.
The result? Floorplan's evolution as a collaborative effort has yielded some of their most groundbreaking work yet. Each new release stands as a testament to their ever-evolving sound, their shared passion for pushing the boundaries of techno, and the undeniable power of creative synergy within a family.
