Scientific American makes beats and electronic noises on computers. After playing in local bands for a stint in his native Seattle, scientific (properly named Andrew Rohrmann) became interested with the idea of making music on his own. Using computers to mix up his favorite elements of hip hop, jazz, and electronic music, scientific came up with his own unique blend. points of reference (pointed out by various magazine reviewers) may include shadow, krush, premiere, and boards of canada. (we didn't say it, they did!) the past few years have been filled with shamelessly promoting things such as cars (volkswagen), charge cards (discover), and cameras (Hewlett packard) in the form of music for television ads. in between these jobs, scientific still finds time to perform live, featuring lots of button pushing, some turntable work, and even controlling video from the stage.
