Originally released in 1999 on the Duet imprint, Robert Hood’s “Sophisticcato” stands as a concise but potent example of his late-’90s minimal techno philosophy. Built around four tracks, including the title cut, “The First Night” and two versions of “Cobra Seed”, the record features his signature approach with stripped-back drum patterns and hypnotic loops that prioritise rhythm over unnecessary embellishment. Throughout the year M-Plant’s Perpetual Masters series has been releasing one track per week from Robert Hood’s extensive music archive, remastered by legendary German producer, Thomas Heckmann.
