"A gorgeous diversion from this erstwhile folk/pop talent… she gave her songs and her silken voice over to sound artist and producer Keith Schriener, who wrapped them both up in crinkly, metallic-tinged electronic wrappings and warm, engulfing layers of ambient synthesizer noise… has fully inhabited the role of down-tempo diva on her latest album, "Rubber Teardrop." The album opens with three gorgeous tracks that Schneiderman throws her whole person into. She takes a come-hither tone on album opener "Hush" that melds into AutoTuned pleas over heartbeatlike beats on "River Stone," before she curls up into the smoky, lovelorn "Anchor." It's quite a transformation and a tribute to her pliant, engaging voice." –Robert Ham, The Oregonian

Christian Blunda says:

On Rubber Teardrop, Stephanie Schniederman has hit her stride, pinpointing where her acoustic songwriting skills and pop flair meld perfectly with the electronic sound she has been moving towards since her last record. That is not to say the album is limited in its style or voice; its varied themes capture Stephanie's strengths in many ways. Her warm voice maneuvers gracefully through soft electronics, hard grooves, pure pop, and a pretty Elliot Smith cover to boot.
