Biography

Scott, a prolific composer, inventor, and performer, is best known for something he never directly did—his music was used by Carl W. Stalling as the foundation for many soundtracks in classic Warner Brothers cartoons. Scott’s piece "Powerhouse" is famously featured during scenes with conveyor belts, machines, and other mechanical movements in numerous cartoons. He founded the Raymond Scott Quintette, a six-member band that played his distinctive blend of swing and jazz fusion (he preferred the spelling “quintette” because it sounded sharper). Besides traditional instruments, the Quintette was a pioneer in incorporating sound effects and experimental techniques. After leaving the band in 1942, Scott became a musical director at CBS, contributing to shows like "Your Hit Parade" and helping to form the network’s first integrated band. Later, Scott emerged as an innovator in music synthesizers, collaborating briefly with Robert Moog. He invented the Electronium, the Claviox, and the Videola—a device enabling composers to view films while creating or performing soundtracks. Scott continued composing with computers into his seventies, but a series of heart attacks and strokes in the early 1990s left him unable to work or communicate. He passed away on February 4, 1994, at age 85.
