Submission declined on 28 December 2022 by Home Lander (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. Declined by Home Lander 2 years ago. | ![]() |
Comment: Most of the sources are interviews/based on what Colburn says which are primary sources and not independent. Front of House Magazine is not an independent sources because Colburn is one of their engineers. S0091 (talk) 15:35, 28 May 2025 (UTC)
Comment: See WP:COI."where we spent a few years at Books On Tape recording such icons as" is far from encyclopedic.WP:External links need to be removed. Greenman (talk) 09:22, 18 March 2023 (UTC)

Scott W. Colburn is an American music producer, audio engineer, sound designer, musician and teacher based in Seattle. Scott is best known for his work with The Animal Collective, Arcade Fire. Sun City Girls, Prince Rama, and Mudhoney. Also known for sound design work on Zombies of Mass Destruction and the score to Session 9 as a member of Climax Golden Twins.
Born in Skokie, IL, Scott grew up predominantly in Columbus, IN,[2] where he discovered a love for punk rock. The "do it yourself" aesthetic was inspirational as Colburn started writing scene reports for Maximum Rock and Roll, started a record label (Gravelvoice) and fanzine (Blow it Off).
Scott later attended Columbia College Chicago and completed his BA in Audio Arts and Acoustics in 1989. While in Chicago, his relationship with the members of Sun City Girls would broadly define the next few decades of his personal and professional career as he recorded the bulk of their albums.[1]
Scott moved to Seattle in 1993 and jumped into a exclusive relationship with Sun City Girls producing nearly 30 records over a few decades. He also joined Climax Golden Twins at this time and simultaneously continued his solo music project JABON.[3]
Colburn was among a handful of engineers asked to do live mixing at a newly formed KEXP-FM.[4]
Around 2000 Scott began teaching at various schools. the longest running stint is with the University of Washington's Professional and Continuing Education Audio Program and writing for TapeOp magazine.
In 2015 Colburn started to retreat from the music industry and started to pursue new avenues of audio discovery in the virtual realm[5]. Scott currently works at an audio research facility in Redmond, WA
