Pittsburgh resident Shawn Rudiman releases his debut EP on Tresor Records. Titled Autonomic Pilot,
it features shifting tables of subliminally orchestral synths and rich drum textures that spawn new
voyages.
A bold approach underlines ‘KNSR’, where saturated acid manipulates the cinematic intent of the
brassy synth strokes. Too Far Gone goes for the interstellar, featuring insistent, playful percussion
amidst widescreen resonances before resolving into a cerebral workout of Rudiman’s trademark
machine funk. ‘Erotique Feedback’ shows Rudiman honing his focus into what will no doubt be a
regular in clubs - a 303-oriented electro trip, a synaptic drive into glittering acid bliss.
On the B-side, the mind magic of ‘Past The Edge’ shifts outside, bringing a sunrise for those who
reinvent the possibilities of the day. ‘Eyes Forward’ is a techno banger, forcefully pointing in the
direction of travel and shutting the door behind. Ascending e ortlessly, Rudiman motors into essential
repetition. ‘Backwards Tomarrows’ brings an industrial feel, almost obscuring melodies and cadences
that recalls the galactic innovations of the Detroit sound.
The studio is Rudiman’s vehicle, the weapon and the balm. From synthetic wonders to darkwarehouse
drum missives, Autonomic Pilot proves once again Rudiman as a master of his craft.
Tresor Records is proud to welcome his new work into the world.
