Producer and DJ Robert Hood recently announced a partnership with Dekmantel under the name Paradygm Shift. The cutting-edge Dutch label is an ideal facilitator for Hood to revisit his minimal roots, as its members have a reputation for being laid-back, despite being one of the busiest imprints in Amsterdam.

 

Hood, who has continually revolutionized Detroit techno since the early nineties — both under various aliases as a solo artist and as a founding member of Underground Resistance, stated in a press release that “The idea behind Paradygm Shift is similar to a shift in our focus. We can become so complacent; we are so comfortable with our surroundings, I think this is the time for electronic music to find a new mindset.”

 

Paradygm Shift will be released as a series comprising three EPs and a full-length album, beginning with the first installment (a two-track EP) on February 22. You can preview those tracks, “Form” and “Locker,” below, as well as watch a video of Hood discussing the project after the jump.
