Four years later their debut album Orbs created quite a stir within the Austrian jazz scene. It was the mysterious beauty of quantum physics that inspired composer and band leader Aufmesser to create his first album. This may sound slightly unusual, but in fact the strange chaos and intimate connections found in the depths of the universe are an excellent analogy for this group of unique musical individualists. Just like particles each musician seems to have a life of his own while always staying closely connected to the group, floating in a constant state of flux and communication. The compositions themselves are the perfect environment for these opposite worlds, balancing classical counterpoint and sprawling, Charles Mingus-inspired jazz landscapes, intellect and emotion.
Another pervasive trait of Aufmesser’s work is his characteristic brand of quirky humour. His tongue-in-cheek commentary on the bizarre twists and turns of life (particularly the unique absurdities of life in his native Austria) are even more obvious in Aufmessers Schneide’s newest album Stereo Friction (2022). Even the music itself seems to be becoming increasingly eclectic. Whereas other Austrian bands tend to have distanced themselves from the jazz idiom, Aufmessers Schneide tries to stretch the boundaries of the genre without losing sight of the band’s particular strengths - their expressiveness, their diverse musical personalities, their inspired interpretational style. It seems Aufmessers Schneide, just like quantum physics, simultaneously contains an endless number of possibilities. You never know what will emerge out of the mist of probabilities.
