Rudi Zygadlo - Rudi Zygadlo – Scrapbook Sympathies

Once hailed as the ‘Scottish Future Prince raised on dubstep’, Rudi Zygadlo’s eclectic sound sits between the picturesque realms of pop perfection and the edgier undercurrent of the dance floor. Intelligently blending elements of electro, pop and dance, each of Rudi’s colourful productions is an auditory explosion. Following his last single ‘SLOW CARZ’ released on Diplo’s Mad Decent imprint, Rudi Zygadlo returns with Sympathies Scrapbook, a euphoric summer number complete with intoxicating B-side Black Bile and a cyber-driven DZZ remix.
 
Tropical, beat-heavy fun laced with dream-like harmonies, Sympathies Scrapbook is the definition of electronic pop music made for the 21st century. Nailing the balance between Rudi’s palette of influences, Sympathies Scrapbook builds from a percussive base to a heartwarming mammoth chorus crescendo, layering elements to create a solid-gold texture. The feel-good factor continues on the flip for Black Bile, a punchy, avant-garde ballad for the modern age filled with flamboyant drum arrangements. LA boy DZZ put his own internet hip-hop stamp on Sympathies Scrapbook with a new wave, future-fronting remix.
 
With an electrifying personality that reflects the eccentricity and of his work, Rudi Zygadlo is known for hi-energy attitude that travels across his output and live shows. Honing his craft over two albums, past releases include Tragicomedies on Planet Mu plus self-released, Tim Goldsworthy produced Lily. Rudi is also part of the revered RBMA alumni. Approaching songwriting and production with an abstract yet scholarly method, Sympathies Scrapbook is the embodiment of Rudi Zygadlo; with allegoric hidden messages in lyrics, and passionate, beautiful commotion in sound.
