American composer, bandleader, and inventor, Raymond Scott, born on September 10, 1908 in Brooklyn, NY and passed away on February 8, 1994 in North Hills, CA. He was a pioneer of contemporary experimental music.

In 1949, Scott's most significant achievement was the creation of the Electronium - one of the earliest synthesizers ever made.

Although it lacked a keyboard and wasn't considered a prototype synthesizer by Scott himself, its groundbreaking use of artificial intelligence paved the way for future electronic compositions.

Scott's inventive spirit extended to other creations as well.
