David Allen Scott has passed away. we met in 5th grade and he was my longest known friend. we got on really well and there were many laughs through the years.    although we moved around the country during the many years since, we always kept in touch though our shared audio files and occasional visits. he was a creative artist, musician, and a great friend. he will be terribly missed...    dave, i wish life hadn't dealt you such a rough go.

this is us on top of 'pikes peak'. we hiked the whole 20 mile barr trail. started out at 85° and ended in a lightening snow storm. he had a rough time of it towards the end, but he made it to the top. we caught a ride down, as back then, there was always someone to catch a ride with. he slept for literally 24 hours after he got home. i would periodically check on him to make sure he was still alive. he forever after referred to that hike as 'the pikes peak death march'. on another hike. we hiked a lot in colorado.   we took a telescope up to the mountains to watch an eclipse. we used the sun to light a joint. dave was a great comic artist in high school. this is him and i setting up some audio nonsense. he cleverly poked fun at fellow students and faculty. dave's wooferblast.com website • dave's music on bandcamp.com • dave's wooferblast twitch show • dave's Congruent Acoustics website • contact   daftmonkdnb: I have learned that David Scott, aka Wooferblast, has passed away. I got to know him as he hosted his Wooferblast Show on Twitch. Started during the pandemic, the weekly show relied on members of his audience bringing new music to the share with everyone else. Considering that he was of retirement age, Dave was not the typical Twitch host, but he was passionate about music and encouraged everyone whose music he played to make more. His enthusiasm for creativity was infectious.    I learned a lot about Dave as I participated in his show and chatted with him online over the past few years. He grew up in a family full of country musicians and broadcasters. He loved being in a studio and it was his favorite place to hang out, play or even make music. He started his music career in the classic rock era of the 1970s as a member of a series of bands where he usually played the bass. His musical taste was always adventurous and experimental. His recordings often stretched the limitations of his recording equipment. Over the course of the 80s and 90s he started acquiring synths and sampler creating music that you might call industrial and techno. He hated sticking to a single label. It was always just music to him. You can find it at dascott.bandcamp.com and experience the range of what he created over the years.    He had a career working with computers for the government and he had a passion for the freedom promised by that technology. He spent time doing virtual reality in Somnium Space, but also had a number of projects reflecting the internet outside the world of big tech. He had a bbs and wanted to make a social network for musicians.    I'm grateful I had the chance to get to know Dave. He was such a positive force for creativity and such an open person. I always appreciated hearing him ramble.    Thanks for everything Dave.   imblakehotz: Dave was a true creator. He lived by the code to create share and inspire. Everyone let out a loud and deep WOOF WOOF WOOF for the man.    Rest in peace my dear friend.   matthijs_witteveen: Since the introduction from the MetaPop era I've been enjoying the Wooferblast show with his typical chaotic presentation as Dave always did with his grandeur.    Rest in peach Dave, it's been a Wooferblast!   whiteandberg:
