Glasgow-based Rudi Zygadlo has been creating quirky, eclectic electronic music since 2010, with releases on Planet Mu, via Diplo’s Mad Decent and his own imprint RZ. He created the sound design for Gorillaz award-winning Humanz app, and he’s scored music for various film and TV projects. His live band consists of Rory Haye on bass, Andrew Pattie on keyboards and Liam Chapman on drums. His songs are sometimes odd and his lyrics are often irreverent, but he’s not afraid of a good hook.
Blurring the boundaries of our online and offline selves, conscious and subconscious, new single Transport offers a glimpse into Zydadlo’s weird and wonderfully creative mind. Transport is set for release later this year on his Chattanooga EP, alongside 2021 single Athens Love Boat. We also enjoyed his week-long residency on community radio station Clyde Built Radio, titled Doggerland, where he interviewed the likes of Orlando Weeks from The Maccabees and – well – his Dad.
