Big Sky – The Sound of the Nineties. The sky – big and wide! That's how we saw it in the 90s: having just left school behind, finally tasting freedom, finally beginning our own lives. We musicians of Generation X created our own soundtrack, fitting for that era. Samplers and Atari-1040ST computers became part of our equipment, and in my case, a lot of digital keyboards as well. Having started as a young pianist in the 70s at the Margareten Music School in Vienna, after a music-hungry teenage phase in the 80s, the 90s became my time to play. I earned my living as a musician through commercial CD productions and many live performances as a keyboardist with artists around the world. My own music was influenced by lounge, downbeat, and acid jazz – music that, through its relaxation, formed a counterpoint to my work. This created many compositions, stored on hard drives and forgotten over the years, which I now, at 59 years old, bring back to life. Simply to see that big, wide sky again… Entirely instrumental pieces, performed and infused with a healthy dose of improvisation by a quartet (drums, upright bass, keys, trumpet) with Dominik Fuss on trumpet and a special guest as a little surprise! www.scheibmaier.be www.toctoctrax.com
