Internal Empire

by Robert Hood

Internal Empire cover art

Released just after his departure from Underground Resistance, Robert Hood's 'Internal Empire' systematically dismantled techno to its absolute skeletal core. By prioritizing relentless, stripped-back grooves over complex melodies or sweeping synths, the album essentially codified the minimal techno subgenre and permanently reoriented dance music's structural priorities.
