“What started out as a mix soon turned into a whole bunch of home-made mashes, set out in a series of chapters and separated by incidental random instrument stabs, plucks and coughs. There are only a few tunes on there that remain unadulterated.
So for the most part, unlikely combinations, accapellas and classical loops, not consecutive songs” Mr Zygadlo
Rudi Zygadlo is a musician like no other, taking the fundamentals of Dubstep in a direction that is as unexpected as it is unique, he’s created an amalgamation of pop song writing with Dubstep, rewired using influences as wide as Frank Zappa, Eastern European Classical music and contemporary US Indie, he’s tipped for great things in 2010.
He describes his music essentially as a fusion, a form of music he’s had in his head which has brought together his influences into a new format. The music he’s due to release in 2010 sounds effortless and completely natural. ‘Resealable Friendship’ is his debut single followed by his album ‘Great Western Laymen’ which comes out in May.
The single is about a Special Friendship he’s developed, the rest is open to interpretation, but the song reconditions pop music for Rudi’s purposes and musical vision.
Two of Planet Mu’s brightest stars have reinterpreted the song with their remixes, here, Starkey takes the song on a lonely journey into space and Slugabed puts in a mix where the voice drifts in and out of a stop start, rippling bass line and punchy drums.
The EP finishes off with the strange ‘The Udu and the Clave’, an instrumental that combines Zappa-like chromatics with juddering synths and wobbles.

Really interesting mix. Heard snippets of the album already and it’s great. Think it trancsends beyond the wonk tag to be honest.

Awesome, nice to hear someone having a bit of fun with their mix.
Filthy Logic II is an instant classic.

[...] Rudi Zygadlo is the new kid on the block of the immense Planet Mu hive. The title track has this subdued intensity created by the gaps in sound, the steps back and then explodes with a control like an elephant on a leash. The Starkey remix of Resealable Friendship is so epic it does heard. Can it be more bombastic, daring, pushing the boundaries of what men can take? This will go into the history books as the example of EPIC. The Slugabed remix is pure filth, all the sound put into a grind box, distortion, trash can (what ever was around). The The Udu and the Clave sounds like an Starkey track but different. The wobble sounds like a voice sample heavy overdubbed into a bass line. A lot of promises on this one. Also listen to the remix by Raffertie on his soundcloud.We need to see him do this live! He did a great mix for Rob Booth’s Electronic Explorations, also here! [...]
