Hi there,
I think having a tutorial about Robert Hood’s style of techno would be really amazing.
This guy is the guy who almost invented “Minimal Techno” (have a look at his mighty “Minimal Nation”) but who keep his sound really techno.
He keeps being a symbol of “Detroit Techno” but his tracks are played by almost everyone from the techno and tech house scene.
- From the Detroit guys like Carl Craig, Derrick May, Jeff Mills
- From the techno guys from Europe like Adam Beyer, Carl Cox, …
- There are House DJs playing his tracks too
The point is that his sound is called “Minimal Techno” but has nothing to do with the “modern minimal techno” (which is totally soulless in my opinion); if I wanna listen to some “real classic techno” then Robert Hood is my choice. He keeps topping the techno charts because his tracks destroy a dancefloor but you still hear that “oldschool” feeling in them which is what most of the techno lovers are looking for !
The goal would be to be able to create some oldschool techno stabs / chords; with a minimal but really banging and groovy rhythmic…
