Rotersand is a German electronic music act, formed in September 2002 by musician/producer Gun and singer Rascal with dance music producer/DJ Krischan J.E. Wesenberg joining them shortly after. Rotersand's music can generally be described as futurepop; the band themselves refer to it as "industrial pop".

Prior to Rotersand, Gun and Rasc had collaborated on various other projects, most notably Gun as one producer and Rasc as one member of the band The Fair Sex. Rotersand's debut release was the 'Merging Oceans' EP in 2003, followed by their debut album Truth Is Fanatic. In 2005, they released the single 'Exterminate Annihilate Destroy', a precursor to their second album Welcome To Goodbye. Both of which reached No.1 in the Deutsche Alternative Charts DAC. The third Rotersand album, 1023, was released in 2007.

The band has toured Europe with Assemblage 23 and both Europe and the US with Covenant, it played at Dark City Festival and was one of the headlining acts at Infest 2006. Mark Jackson of VNV Nation joined them on stage at the M'era Luna Festival in Hildesheim Germany in August 2006, and the band appeared twice at the Wave Gotik Treffen.

After the discontinuation of Dependent Records in 2008 the band signed to Trisol Records in 2008 and released the single "I cry", which was taken from the '1023' album. It also contains a DVD with live and interview material and reached the DAC's No.1 shortly after its release.

2009 saw the release of the newest Rotersand MCD War On Error a teaser for the band's album Random Is Resistance, which was released in October of that year.
