Rudi Zygadlo Doggerland

Rudi Zygadlo returns with his third album Doggerland, his first in ten years and most expressive yet. A bubble of hope in a sea of doom, saluting the oncoming tides with big hooks and a wry sense of humour.

Glasgow based citizen of the world, Rudi Zygadlo offers up mischievous and catchy songs, placed somewhere on, or perhaps perpendicular to, the indy-pop spectrum, featuring anthemic hooks, big drums, guitar wizardry, irreverent vocals and exhilarating musical interludes. His songs deal with affairs of the world and affairs of the heart from an apprehensive, disaffected and amused millennial - ‘I want to baffle, infect, temporarily annoy and ultimately heart warm the listener.’ 

Rudi began putting out electronic music in 2010. He released two albums and an EP with Planet Mu records, an EP on Pictures Music, a single on Diplo’s Mad Decent and a host of one offs on his own imprint, RZ. With an appetite for trickery and disguise, Rudi has also released numerous singles and EPs under the names of Lully and Golden Ratio Syrup. He has remixed Clean Bandit, Leanne La Havas, Sunset Sons, Amadou and Miriam and Electric Guest among others.

He has also undertaken various multimedia collaborations. In 2014, he attended Red Bull Academy in New York where he produced a track with Thundercat, and in 2017, created the sound design for Gorillaz award winning Humanz app. In collaboration with artist Georg Finlay Ramsay, Rudi scored Oscar Winner, Tim Yip’s new film Love Infinity, an epic docu-drama about the queer art underworld of London, starring Daniel Lismore, Vivienne Westwood and Gilbert and George set for release on MUBI this year.
