White producer Prefuse 73 (Scott Herren), also active as post-rocker Savath & Savalas, Miami-born, Atlanta-raised and Barcelona-resident, heralded laptop-based hip-hop with Vocal Studies + Uprock Narratives (2001), a tour de force of fractured, warped, incoherent stream of consciousness that mixed glitch music, deconstructed vocals and jazz patterns.

One Word Extinguisher (2003) reduced the impact and increased the melodic danceable element, while Surrounded By Silence (2005) featured guests from white and black music and further refined his multi-faceted compositional techniques at the border between glitch electronica and hip-hop. The mini-album Security Screenings (Warp, 2006) focused on a hyper-fusion of jazz, funk, glitch and hip-hop, an intriguing project but implemented in a rather clumsy manner. Preparations (2007) is a rather predictable continuation of the same program, smoother and classier than ever, but hardly revolutionary.

Scott Herren's other project Savath & Savalas, that had debuted with the EP Folk Songs For Trains, Trees And Honey (Hefty, 2000), featured Eva Puyuelo Muns on vocals on the Latin-tinged Manana (Warp, 2004) and Apropa't (Warp, 2004). Golden Pollen (Anti, 2007) was the first Savath & Savalas album on which Herren was the only singer.

Everything She Touched Turned Ampexian (Warp, 2009) is his fifth full-length effort.

La Llama (Stones Throw, 2009) is Savath & Savalas' fourth studio album.
