MH-233 Scientific American - Strong For The Future  After a string of successful production projects, Scientific American presents his Mush Records debut, Strong For The Future. Featuring ten tracks that capitalize on the fresh sounds and dynamic production of IDM without sacrificing the music's soul, the album mixes elements of electronic dance music, hip-hop, and rock into a single hybrid. With beautiful electronic compositions that could fit neatly on The Leaf Label ("Strong for the Future"), chop and paste hip-hop influenced productions reminiscent of music on Warp ("Between Urban Movements"), or classic vocal tracks that sound like the Flaming Lips produced by Boards Of Canada ("Drift in Place" which features vocals by John Atkins of 764-Hero), Scientific American has created an album that will surely be recognized as one the most expertly produced releases in the Mush catalog. |

| A fresh ear and a deft programming finger. - Earplug / so accomplished, it's hard to believe that Andrew Rohrmann isn't an old master. - Textura / A skilled and instantly likeable producer - Delusions Of Adequacy / Beautiful and neatly layered cut-and-paste symphonies - San Francisco Examiner |

| A sweet slice of solo electronica done right. No particular formula in evidence, except to lull listeners with warm sonic possibilities. Beats are important and varied but not overriding. It's a record I'm at a loss to describe, since it's success seems to come down to the very tasteful choices of varied texture and tone. I think of a less well-defined Styrofoam, if that helps. Anyway, damn fine music suitable for many occasions. - Music Womb |
