**Black Editions Presents** guitarist, composer, improviser, and interpreter **Shane Parish** performing his acclaimed work **Autechre Guitar**. Parish focuses on the translation of music across traditions, canons, and technologies. Known for his precise and expressive fingerstyle technique and his nuanced approach to transcription, Parish treats interpretation as a compositional practice, using existing works as material for structural and sonic transformation. On February 27, 2026, **Shane Parish** released the album Autechre Guitar on Bill Orcutt’s Palilalia Records. A seemingly impossible task, Parish arranged ten songs by the electronic UK duo Autechre for solo acoustic guitar, and performed them with warmth, feeling, and precision. A beautifully recorded collection of songs, the album was met with universal acclaim, going into multiple pressings, and leading to a slew of international festival invitations to perform the music live. *“In the midst of an ever-expanding discography that swerves from jazz and avant-garde to folk and blues, free improv and studious composition and attention-grabbing covers, Shane Parish is the perfect artist to take \[Autechre’s Music\] on: a master’s thesis after years of intense field work.”* —Sam Sodomsky, Pitchfork *“Autechre Guitar is elegant and crystalline, a set of fascinating miniatures composed of unexpected links and gaps. It’s as confounding and crafted as an Escher staircase.”* — Derek Walmsley, The Wire *“Ultimately, Autechre Guitar works on multiple levels… an invitation to listen deep inside the music… and to simply get lost in Shane’s astonishingly fleet playing.”* — Philip Sherburne, Futurism Restated *“By unplugging Autechre, Parish has given their music even more power.”* —Reed Jackson, Spin Magazine **Laura Shumate** is a Los Angeles-based electronic musician. Her work transforms commonplace sounds and melodies into dissonant forms juxtaposed against sweeping drones and sound synthesis. Through this approach, Shumate seeks to underline a perceptual imbalance within the human experience, resetting this disproportion through the tactic of synthesis. The dissonant becomes harmonious, and sonics traditionally perceived as unwelcome become inviting and transcendent. Using modular and traditional synthesizers, the outcome of her realization is one of complete immersion into an ecstatic realm of sound.
