Robbing Hood

Strange voyage on a quest for the heart of the new

About Me

LHP Production's Robbing Hood is a solo project of Dave Webb . Originally a guitarist, he began using a drum machine as a metronome and discovered that programming beats was far more fun than playing in a thrash metal band. This led not only to the making of bangin' 303 606 acid techno but also experimenting with low speed DJing in the backrooms at Zero Gravity , Club Dog and Megadog events. On discovering the joys of sampling and sequencing with an SU10 and Atari ST his music became increasingly breakbeat orientated; about 8 years ago he purchased his first PC and hasn..t looked back.
Today his studio consists of a portable minidisc, a stereo microphone and a laptop running sample manipulation and sequencing software. He uses only found sounds recorded in the field, computer generated frequencies and, more recently, self played and recorded guitar and drum sounds. Sometimes the tunes evolve from an initial loop which then dictates the tempo and feel of the track. Sometimes they grow from a concept - maybe a muse on the sonic possibilities of the periodic table. And sometimes they just germinate from a beat seed

I've just uploaded a brand new mix of some ambient, 'beatless wonders', see what you think here .
