Each track was given a 90-second preview on the Bleep page dedicated to the release. In the short segment, you can hear another helping of uplifting house put forth by the duo. Piano and vocal-driven, the songs see the Hoods showcase their innate ability to deliver a sound that inspires both physical and emotional movement.
Robert Hood has been busy as of late. In the fall, a post-disco mixtape of his from 2004 was uncovered and posted on Mixcloud for all to enjoy. Shortly before that, he made his Rekids debut with the release of his EP, Nothing Stops Detroit. In addition to the EP, he offered fans even more music with a new full-length album, Mirror Man.
“Right There” and “Holy Ghost” under Robert and Lyric Hood’s Floorplan project will be released on Thursday, January 21st. You can pre-order the tracks on vinyl here.
]]>The only track available from the effort at the time of writing is “Personal Slave,” which came out in April. Provocative spoken word samples contributed by Charles McCloud play out over wonky 303 bass lines in the single.
Decorated composer Tim K is credited as co-producer on numerous entries in the Best Of Both Worlds tracklist, and Sam Sparro, Joi Cardwell and Nomi Ruiz are among the vocalists featured on the effort. Honey Dijon has also given her 2016 Seven Davis Jr. collaboration titled “Houze” a makeover and included it in the album.
On Best Of Both Worlds, Honey Dijon has said:
The album is a personal statement. It was about taking these different worlds and combining them to make something new. The Best Of Both Worlds was a pun that I wanted to take, empower and own.
