Review: Maintaining a fine family tradition, Lyric Hood delivers a blistering EP on her father's label. Sonically speaking, "Soul on Fire" is in the Floorplan tradition, with a wiry bass and tight percussive claps providing the backdrop for a repetitive vocal sample. On "11.44 (PM version)", Lyric follows a similar direction. It's all about the driving rhythm and incessant hi-hats, with these elements creating a platform for Lyric to lay down looped vocals and a brooding synth line. "Gotta Good Thing" is also inspired by the Hood family's love of house, as celebratory, soulful vocals are merged with a relentless, jacking groove. Of all the tracks on this release, "Woman" is the moodiest, with Lyric dropping insistent stabs over an insistent, percussive rhythm.

Review: On her latest M-Plant foray, Lyric Hood continues to uphold the family tradition of making killer house and techno. On the dub version of "Let Me..", she splices up the vocal sample, letting it unfold over dense kicks and bursts of metallic percussion. Kayrem has been drafted in to rework the track, which originally featured on Lyric's Woman Hood Chapter 1, and this alternate version focuses on a deeper, break beat led groove. However, Lyric is quick to steer the release back towards peak-time territory, and the driving rhythm, doubled up claps and sassy vocals of "It Takes A fool" is sure to appeal to fans of Floorplan.

Review: The flair for producing killer electronic music r runs in the Hood family, as this release from Lyric demonstrates. Like her father's Floorplan project, which she is now part of, this two-tracker draws on Detroit house and techno to create a mesmerising hybrid. "Not Enough" is built on dense, steely drums and a snaking bass, with Lyric deploying a repetitive vocal sample to devastating effect. On "Praise Up", Lyric draws inspiration from another Hood family tradition: faith. With its driving rhythm, ominous synth stabs and a snippet of a gospel singer on a loop, it makes an inspired dance floor ode to a higher power.

Review: Lyric Hood follows last year's Nineteen debut on M Plant with this superb two-tracker. "Everything" features a woozy filter, hypnotic vocals and a series of subtle break downs and builds, with all of these elements supported by a sleek, linear groove. Meanwhile "Social Distance" sees Lyric address a universal facet of contemporary life; it's reflected in the track's mood, with nightmarish synths looped over a driving rhythm and snares that fire with machine-gun intensity. She may be the younger member of the Floorplan project, but clearly Lyric has got the same intuitive feeling for crafting techno as her pioneering father.

Review: On this occasion, Nineteen shows that the proverb about the apple not falling too far from the tree is correct. The daughter of label owner Robert Hood, Lyric has collaborated with her father on the Floorplan project for the past few years. However, this solo release shows that she has developed a distinctive sound. The title track is a driving, stomping affair that sees Hood junior take inspiration from her father as she deploys insistent filtered stabs. On "11:11", Lyric opts for a tougher approach: the kicks are tougher, the rhythm at a higher pace and the percussive stabs will destroy any dance floor.
