About

i am jen is Jen Scaturro, New York’s electronic-pop superhero known for her future-modern synth & beat programming, eclectic songwriting and multi-instrumentalist antics.

i am jen’s scientific blend of pop-tronic music is introspective, with a stylistic mix of clever vocal processing, hooky synth lines and electronic beats.

“i am jen is a cross between Massive Attack and sometimes the glitchier bits of Aphex Twin,…she is similar to Suzanne Vega as well – this is true, especially vocally. I would throw in a bit of early Bjork too.” (Robert Pisani @ AlternativeMalta.com)

Synths, bass, guitar, drum machines, melodica, stylophone, (you name it)…Jen was playing piano before she could walk. She toured the west coast in jazz and pop bands, recorded a 45, and build a recording studio in her bedroom by age 15.



2 colleges, 3 cities, 4 bands and 7 apartments later jen filled her New York city studio with solitude and fed her computer everything that made sound. Her electro-pop stylings caught the ears of major label stars. Programming beats and synth lines on albums progressed to producing songs for records, film & TV.

“Jen’s solo electronic work is thoughtful, provoking, emotional and scientific, whispering tales of imaginary inner worlds. She combines music with art, pictures and various forms o media to provide a more complete picture of the artist behind the stage.” (in_2_it @ crater Technology Magazine)

The Broken EP (2004), a self-produced, four-song introduction to i am jen, has been embraced with international exposure. Radio 1 added “At the Same Time” to the playlist. XM and other stations soon followed in the U.S., Europe and across the web. MTV, CBS, FOX & HBO have licensed songs for their television shows.  i am jen has been featured in Keyboard, Computer Music and Future Music magazines.

Invisible (2007), another 4-song EP, inspired Jen to explore video production. The music video for “Blowing My Mind” is a narrative, stop-motion animated  short.  It has aired on PBS (Thirteen/WNET) and in local New York City movie houses.

Electronic Collection No. 1 and SLOW IS IN were also released in 2007.  EC01 takes a look back before i am jen was born.  This moody collection of 11 instrumentals has been used as the soundtrack to independent film (“Guest of Cindy Sherman”) and television programs (“The First 48”).  It has brought Jen many scoring opportunities including shows for the Sundance Channel (“Iconoclasts”) and Discovery (“Last Seen Alive”).
