  computerchemist is the ongoing solo project of Dave Pearson, who lives in Székesfehérvár, Hungary, after moving from the UK in 2008.
Over the last 25 years Dave's music has been strongly influenced by "classic" Berlin School performers such as Tangerine Dream (mostly from the '72-'86 period) and Klaus Schulze, as well as taking inspiration from newer, more contemporary musicians with a diversity ranging from The Mars Volta to Csaba Vedres.

album cover His latest excursion, the third album "Landform", takes the listener again into an ethereal synthesizer and guitar landscape, with a distinctly original take on the classic Berlin-school sound.

"It's quite unique in blending pads, sequencing and then guitars and drums also. Maybe nobody has ever made this connection but Tangerine Dream meets Klaus Schulze meets early King Crimson meets Starless and Bible black era King Crimson meets Dave Pearson." - Greg Allen, author of Klaus Schulze - The Electronic Music Legend

 
   icon one (2007)   
  the second album, "icon one", was released on new year's eve 2007, and takes the listener on a voyage of sonic discovery; from the energy and light of the title track "icon one" to the darkness and entropy of "icon zero"; the past memories recalled by "timethorns" and the focal centre of the album "chaos theory" - where a small, insignificant event can cause a massive shift of everything - computerchemist weaves an evocative blend of instrumental synthesis which is sure to delight fans of the EM genre. The last track, "the message", carries a simple premise; we all have within us the power to change the future.

album cover computerchemist's first album "atmospheric" was released in January 2007 to critical acclaim. Drawing heavily on the Berlin School sound, but interpreting it in a distinctly modern style, within its seven tracks it takes the listener on a fresh voyage of discovery, with each piece telling a very different story through the universal medium of music.

"Nice to hear what your up to, I always love to hear people being themselves. Lots of detail and colour. keep it flowing." - Steve Jolliffe
"If you want to fly and leave the hardships of this reality behind or search for unknown, restful worlds, this music will help you a great deal." - Csaba Vedres
"Now, that's what I call quality EM. If you like melodic, Tangerine Dream-influenced sound, be sure to check this one.... Atmospheric is a nice EM album that's well worth checking out" - Artemi Pugachov, Encyclopedia of Electronic Music
