biographical info
Scientists of Sound is a looping madness duo - all sounds are performed, recorded, and manipulated LIVE.
Dirty electro sounds in an improvisational original format that nobody else is doing… Live looping dance madness – in masks – and lab coats…with synched video and lights... This is the mantra for this Halifax based looping madness duo… Play sound – record sound – manipulate sound until it doesn’t sound like the original sound – and do it all over well crafted original dance tracks and thumping’ beats… this is Scientists of Sound.
In the past year SOS have shifted from a side project from Craig Mercer and Aaron Collier, members of the now defunct Jimmy Swift Band, into a bona-fide electro powerhouse on the Canadian music scene… They have performed in most major Canadian markets and have been winning fans coast to coast in the process… They have shared the stage with notable electro artists MSTRKRFT. Kid Koala, Boys Noise, Thunderheist, Skratch Bastid, and more… Their recent tour during which they performed a selection of Daft Punk, Justice, MSTRKRFT, and Deadmau5 tracks in addition to their own thumping originals packed clubs and dance floors across the country. Their debut EP Wealth and Hellness hits I-Tunes in early June of 2011.
"People were falling over, they were crying, they were puking. It was chaos." - The Dalhousie Gazette
"Scientist of Sound sustained their set as if possessed by electronic deities, the crowd cast as their exorcist, and the resulting noise – purification." - Ca Va Cool
