Studio Lore: “Autodrive” comes from Hancock’s Future Shock era, when jazz keys, drum machines, turntable culture, and early hip-hop production were crashing into each other.
Scene Ecology: Working with Bill Laswell and Material, Hancock helped connect jazz history to the downtown New York electro-funk world.
Media Narrative: After “Rockit,” Hancock suddenly became an MTV-era futurist, proving a jazz legend could still sound completely ahead of the curve in the 80s.
