About the artist

Robert Hood & Femi Kuti

ROBERT HOOD: "The master of minimal techno, Robert Hood, is not one to shy away from experimentation. With roots in the legendary group Underground Resistance, Hood has spent decades crafting a sound that is both hypnotic and relentless. Known for his stripped-down approach to production, Hood's tracks are a masterclass in the power of simplicity. From his early works as Floorplan to his more recent collaborations with artists like Luke Slater, Hood's influence on the genre is undeniable. So get ready to lose yourself in the pulsating rhythms of Robert Hood's music - you won't be disappointed." FEMI KUTI: "If you're looking for a musical experience that's equal parts funky and politically charged, then look no further than Femi Kuti. The son of Afrobeat legend Fela Kuti, Femi has inherited his father's passion for activism and his knack for infectious grooves. With a band that includes a full horn section and plenty of percussion, Femi's live shows are a sight to behold. Whether he's railing against government corruption or getting the crowd moving with his catchy melodies, Femi Kuti never fails to deliver a performance that is as thought-provoking as it is danceable. So put on your dancing shoes and get ready to be swept away by the irresistible sounds of Femi Kuti."
