Biography of Scientific American

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.

[fcssa - FCS North / scientific american]. Gyrations and erratica abound within this shared EP out of Seattle, the former courtesy of FCS North, who get the first four tracks, and the latter starring sceintific american, who get the last five. Of particular interest is track two, It's Clear, which features an east coast groove melded with old school robot disco. It's a wholly unique sound, and the ensuing remix punches vocals into the mix. Look for an EP from this Seattle trio of Joshua North (Satisfact), Andy Sells and Mune Yamakawa (Mugfrosty). The scientific american selections, heavier on the vocals and beats, bring a darker vision. Responsible for the sounds accompanying several of the cooler TV ads you may have seen over the years, Andrew Rohrmann can be heard in and around his native NW doing his thing. Go Seattle. (Electronic Music)

[Urb, 2004: Strong for the Future (Mush)] There's a lot to love here. It comes in spurts alongside scattershot IDM patches, rock subtleties and shoe-shined glitch-hop. The final two songs are really the ones that warrant repeat listens, but they're dynamic enough to expect only the best from this former indie-rocker in the future.

[Ear Plug, 2004: Strong For the Future (Mush). Having cut his teeth with sound design for the Seattle Art Museum as well as commercial compositions for Volkswagen, Hewlett-Packard, and Discover, Andrew Rohrmann now creates ten elegiac etudes as Scientific American. His Mush debut, Strong for the Future, presents moody electronic pieces that meander in the digital space between Warp and the Leaf Label. 'Victory Hold Still' is a pastoral dance track, a skipping, thumping piece that pirouettes across pollen-dusted fields. Bootsy Holler's siren voice is submerged in an aquatic reverb of piano and drum in 'The Seas Are the Skies' while tiny cut-up voices and digital detritus collide with a warm melody in 'Million Lines (Slow Fade)' as if Stefan Betke were remixing Amon Tobin. Rohrmann dodges a number of the clichs of IDM with his work as Scientific American, demonstrating a fresh ear and a deft programming finger.

FCSSA (2004)
Out of hip-hop and into electronica, FCS North and Scientific American have released a split CD with the simple title of FCSSA (Imputor?/mass.mvmnt). FCS North sound to me like a mixture of Chemical Brothers and Jazzanova, where heaviness and lightness dance with each other without fear. Scientific American on the other hand go from the ambient smoothness of Phaulvromb?? to the slightly hyperactive blends and chops of Unamerican Activities??, where one Shawn Carter finds his chopped soul within the beats. (D. Bookman, Music for America)
