Motor: Nighttime World 3 (Incl. Cd)

(3X12 INCH LP, 180 G VINYL INCL. CD) With 'Motor: Nighttime World 3' Robert Hood returns to the project he first started on Austria's Cheap label back in 1995 and subsequently continued in 2000 on M-Plant. Fusing his trademark minimal techno into jazz inspired moods and inflections, Hood emerges from the smoke-lit shadows of a downbeat, but not beaten, Motor City metropolis. Inspired by Julien Temple's documentary 'Requiem For Detroit?' Robert Hood examines the life, history and future of Detroit's motor industry and its workforce, set against a backdrop of decay, despair, hope and re-birth. Julien Temple's film is a vivid evocation of an apocalyptic vision: a slow-motion Katrina that has had many more victims. Detroit was once America's fourth largest city. Built by the car for the car, with its groundbreaking suburbs, freeways and shopping centres, it was the embodiment of the American dream. But its intense race riots brought the army into the city. With violent union struggles against the fierce resistance of Henry Ford and the Big Three, it was also the scene of American nightmares. "The situation in Detroit is making people uncomfortable but that's a good thing if we look at it in the right perspective. It's a shaking up and realisation of the condition that Detroit has been in for so long. As it was a long and slow of 2012.
