Bischoff has also written or performed on scores for television and film, including Exhibiting Forgiveness, Organ Trail, The Devil Makes Three, A Futile and Stupid Gesture, Glow, and Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp.

As a composer, Bischoff is largely self-taught having attended part-time college classes on the topic and gaining experience by writing arrangements and compositions for fellow artists in the Seattle music scene.

Many of the vocalists are well known, and included David Byrne, Caetano Veloso, Mirah, Carla Bozulich (Evangelista, Geraldine Fibbers), Craig Wedren (Shudder to Think), Dawn McCarthy (Faun Fables), Zac Pennington (Parenthetical Girls), Soko and more.

Bischoff has been called a "pop polymath"[8] (The New York Times), a "phenom" (The New Yorker),[9] an "orchestral-pop mastermind" (Spin),[10] and "the missing link between the sombre undertones of Ennio Morricone and the unpredictability of John Cale"[11] (New Musical Express).
