The new Monobox album, ‘Regenerate‘ creates an all-enveloping story from its opening chapter and the atmospheric ‘Rise’. Stripped-back tribalism ensues with ‘Blackwater Canal’ before the ominous ‘Wargames’, while ‘Angel City’ brings a lighter, sparkling touch. Disc two delivers the gritty ‘Exoplanet’ running at over nine minutes as it gradually draws you in, then flip over for the sweeping grooves of ‘Drydock’. The album closes on the album’s title track where vintage melodies sit alongside techno futurism.

Monobox to release a new seven track album, ‘Regenerate’.
As we previously announced in October with Robert Hood‘s news detailing the return of his much-loved Monobox alias and the ‘Forwardbase Kodai EP’ comprising two exclusive tracks and two remixes from himself and Ø [Phase], now Robert delivers the full Monobox regeneration across an album featuring seven more outstanding tracks. The new LP has been titled ‘Regenerate‘ and reaffirms the good taste served on the previous EP, now with more outstanding tracks that need to be heard, but most of all, danced. The album will be released across double vinyl and digital on November 26, 2021 via M-Plant. Stay tuned, find everything you want to know below.

Following the re-mastered re-release of Robert Hood’s ‘Underestimated EP’ in March, which was the first M-Plant release of 2021, the label continue the Perpetual Masters series now with a new vintage Floorplan double-header that has been entitled ‘On The Case / The Deal’.
Robert Hood announces the release of a newly remastered version of his Underestimated EP (Perpetual Masters series).
Robert Hood describes his sound as “minimal Detroit techno with an emphasis on soul and experimentation over flash and popularity“, and we couldn’t agree more with that description, especially after listening to his new material, three elegant tracks that will be out next month on the legendary M-Plant label, already recognized for releasing interesting and above all original productions.
