Bio
SHREEFPUNK .. .. BANDINFO:.. .. "The introduction of a new kind of music must be avoided because it will endanger everything. For nowhere was musical style changed without unsettling the most fundamental political laws." .. Plato, Republic 424c. .. Shreefpunk is a Cologne band founded by Matthias Schriefl in 2003. Besides Schriefl, Shreefpunk consists of three young musicians. Johannes Behr, Jens Düppe and Robert Landfermann all live in Cologne like Schriefl himself and have been playing together for years. .. In 2006 the first record "Shreefpunk plus Strings" appeared with ACT. It was followed by invitations to the most important festivals, and tours of Australia, West Africa, Europe and the whole Milky Way. .. The second CD "Live in Köln" appeared 2009 with ACT. Alongside the young musicians on the new CD, there is a long-time star of the subversive scene, who has been both captivating and irritating his fans for decades: Django Bates. .. Shreefpunk often works with a string quartet (Hannah Weirich, Nadine-Goussi Aguigah, Axel Porath und Thomas Schmitz). The string players -- all of them renowned freelancers in the New Music scene -- uncharacteristically make use of techniques borrowed from soul and folk music, they create improvised carpets of sound, even make up the rhythmic foundation in extended passages, and one can even hear them singing from time to time. .. Many tunes feature Schriefl's multi-phonic playing, a distinguishing trait of the young trumpet player. His sound experiments also involve cow bells, children's toys and Brazilian pipes. ..

The CD: Matthias Schriefl .. Shreefpunk plus Strings .. ACT 9657-2 .. LC 07644 .. .. .. .. Press: .. “Like a pressure valve that suddenly explodes – this is how Matthias Schriefl burst into the German Jazz Scene this year with his CD debut. … To crown it all there is a trumpet that has no peer when it comes to virtuosity, boldness and its inexorable expressiveness.”.. Deutschlandfunk, 11/05/2007 .. “…without doubt one of the most auspicious figures of the young German jazz scene.”.. Udo Eberl, Südwest Presse, 18/04/2007 .. “Matthias Schriefl has everything that accounts for a remarkable musician: unusual ideas, brilliant technique and a good portion of comedy and cheekiness, which is needed to arouse not only approving astonishment in the audience, but real excitement.”.. Guido Diesling, Jazzthetik, 03/2007 .. “Matthias Schriefl is a phenomenon”... Henry Altman, Jazzthetik, 03/2007 .. “Vibrantly virtouso… Congratulations for having the guts to produce and bring out such a CD!”.. Hans-Jürgen von Osterhausen, Jazzpodium, 05/2007 .. “A great talent with a quasi mozartean early start.“.. Reinhard Köchel, Jazzthing, 04-05/2007 .. “One day the jazz trumpet player Matthias Schriefl might be as famous as Chet Baker or Art Farmer.“.. Reiner Brückner, WDR-Print, 11/2007 .. “Is this the future of German jazz? For sure!“ .. Stephan Richter, Fono Forum, 04/2007 .. .. Line Up: Matthias Schriefl - trumpet & flugelhorn Johannes Behr - guitars Robert Landfermann - bass Jens Düppe - drums Only on some Concerts and on the CD: Classical Stringquartet ..
