He also performs with Eva Puyuelo Muns, in a duo known as Savath & Savalas. Herren debuted with EP Estrocaro (Oct 2000, Warp – aka Estrocaro EP) and his latest album is Estrocaro (16 Apr 2011, Beat / Jp – Warp / RoTW).
He began his career DJing at MJQ, a small night club in Atlanta, and then began working in commercial studios but soon branched out into his own music. Herren's first major release was under the "Delarosa and Asora" moniker in 1997 with "Sleep Method Suite", with his latest work currently being the Prefuse 73 full-length album, "The Only She Chapters".
In 2000, Herren released a CD/LP on Hefty/Warp titled "Folk Songs For Trains, Trees, And Honey". This was followed by a 2001 exclusive limited pressing (700 copies) of "Immediate Action #1 LP" on Hefty.
Herren first released music under the "Prefuse 73" moniker with 2001's commercially and critically successful "Vocal Studies & Uprock Narratives". In 2002 the 4-track EP "The 92 Vs. 02 Collection" was released, but this merely bridged the gap between his debut and the 2003 release - another full-length album, "One Word Extinguisher". A collection of outtakes, "Extinguished" was released after "One Word Extinguisher" showing off some of the production that was omitted from the initial full-length. Some argue that it is an improvement on the original release. 2005 saw the release of "Surrounded By Silence", Herren's third album as "Prefuse 73". The album features more collaborations with a variety of musicians, including many rappers, both underground and mainstream. An out-takes album based upon "Surrounded By Silence" is expected to be released in the future. 2007 has brought 2 more releases under "Prefuse 73", one being a full length album, and the other a 4 track EP. "Preparations" and "The Class Of 73 Bells" are the titles respectively, and both were released under Warp Records.
Herren is particularly known for his unique take on the glitch style, which has attracted both a rock and hip-hop audience. He is frequently criticised by MC's for over-editing or abbreviating their additions, often to the point of incoherence.
Along with partners Peter Rentz, Carolina Chaves, Ben Loiz, Carlos Niño, and Paz Ochs, Herren has started the Eastern Development Music label. Which is descibed by Herren as,"less concerned with being on some next shit, blowing the fuck up, or changing the face of anything. We're more concerned with bringing you music we think you'll feel and understand in the same way we do."

This came out in 2003....I still don't know what these sounds even are. I don't know if anyone could even recreate this beat or the sounds on it. This album is a TRUE ahead of its time album
brandonispoo
Low bit. 8 and 16. just not used in the traditional sense and with 32bit samples as well. Check sabrepulse or edIT

It took a sec for the beats to gel into my listening sensibilities, but once they did WOW!!
truth via music
this whole track is amazing, but 2:47 though. bow down to the master.

People are still catching up with Scott 10 years later. The dude is proof that you can follow your heart and your own mind and blaze your own trail. This artwork is an inspiration to me.
jimmyjamzful
The complexity of the beat until 2:27 is awesome. Then, to break it down into something so simplistic and amazing at the same time is producing worth admiring to say the least.
ethen
1:15 to this day is the best thing i've ever heard.
Matt Sullivan
this one was always my fav off the album!

I was maybe 15 years old when I was watching a deadmau5 stream and he had this joint playing in the background as he was streaming building his home studio. rarely does a song instantly click with me on a single listen
superads91
I don't like to be a bootlicker, but you gotta give it to the man... I mean, a guy that makes music like this... in my humble opinion he's gotta be THE breakthrough of the 2000's.
