Scattle

**David Scatliffe** , better known as **Scattle**, is a producer, DJ, graphic designer and indie game developer from California. He is best known for his composing on video games like Hotline Miami, Super Meat Boy and Furi.

## Background

Scattle had early jazz music influences from his family and school. He later was influenced from French Electro. However, he has developed a particular music style characterized as a "very authentic retro version of electro" . He has stated that Souleye, composer of the VVVVVV soundtrack, was an important mentor in his musical work .

Scattle begun making very simple video games at an early age . He uses retro softwares for his artistic work, like Gamemaker Studio 1.4 for video game design and Renoise 3 for music production .

As the artist himself stated, the idea of the Scattle persona came from a power socket in which he put a paper clip when he was at school .

Since 2020, Scattle has a parallel project called AR°VR under which he releases more experimental albums.
