I’m looking forward to this film — I found Raymond Scott not quite by accident: “Powerhouse” had haunted me off and on for years and one day I went web-wandering in search of for the source of that “animation music.” Imagine my delight and surprise at finding the creator of it was even more gadget-mad than I am. –A bit obsessed and the personal price was very high, but he certainly left us all many good things. My very best wishes to you, Stan. Thank you.

I was browsing for Scott on youtube and found the trailer for this documentary and I´m really looking forward to this.
I first heard about Scott while reading a Looney Tunes book called “Thats all folks by Steve Schneider.”(1988) and on page 54 is a short article about the music of Raymond Scott and I had never heard about him and I´m quite knowledgeable about music, so I thought I must check this guy out and went on Amazon and found the CD Reckless Nights and Turkish Twilight and was blown away.
Being a fan of Spike Jones and Frank Zappa this music was taylor made for me.
I now have most of the available CD´s and think he´s a Genius and thankfully his music is getting to be more known now than it was 11 years ago when I bought my first Scott CD.
I play the piano and I have recently found the sheet music for Powerhouse and boy is that going to be fun to practise.

Best wishes from Reykjavik Iceland.

While the film has been shown at the Biografilm Festival it wasn’t quite the final version. So it’s not yet out yet, but will be finished within a month or two, and then I’ll be decided how to proceed with distribution from there. You can be assured that all relevant news about releases, festival appearances etc will be posted here first, and on http://www.RaymondScott.com as well.

So it turns out I have been listening to your father’s music for my entire life, but until today I had no idea. After some searching I found myself here, after having purchased “Manhattan Research Inc.” I was totally intrigued by this music, and the man behind the sound. It seems your father was quite an interesting individual indeed and I look forward to this documentary! How will this be released? Digital? Theatrical? Direct? I am very interested.
