Berlin (D). Man, machine and jazz - or: One foot on the dancefloor, the other one into stratosphere
TRANSIT ELEKTRO brings jazz to the club and to your event. The trumpet-player and producer Florian Scheffler associates with his electric jazz project the sound and improvisation of jazz with the modern aspects of the electronic club scene of his hometown of Berlin. Provided with a healthy dose of Balkan sound, house, lounge and hip-hop, the original Balkan jazz live band TRANSIT became the more flexible and modern two-men-and-a-laptop-band TRANSIT ELEKTRO. 

The project stands out due to the combination of trumpet and other instruments with the power of pre-programmed laptop beats and added and live generated electronic sounds. Taking advantage of delays and other effects, the output of the musicians merges with their studio backings. 

TRANSIT ELEKTRO is versatile in the cast. Trumpeter Florian Scheffler integrates one or more musicians, depending on the occasion and desire. From all alone on stage up to more solo instrumentalists or a whole band - everything is possible, nothing has. What comes out of it? A great live event full of break beats, blue notes, world music samples and alienated vocal tatters somewhere between Nils Petter Molvaer, St. Germain and Balkan Beatz for lounging or dancing. Or just that special something for your party or event.

As a fiction writer and MC I tend to lean towards storytelling and imagery when I write music, and I’ve worked on this album for over 2 years.  It’s a concept record using the 1976 iconic satire NETWORK to tell a story of Power, both what gaining it brings and what it can cause.  Production wise it’s on the more electronic side with production handled by my producer out of Chicago (where we met) and born in Ghana MUTT.  

	During a time when people in America are angry and frustrated with the current system in place as well as the value the media now holds and the lack of truth found in it, I think that this record happened to be completed at a perfect time and shows how much life can imitate art by the relevance of this great film today.  This record isn’t just to get MY story across, but it is also to pay respect to a fantastic film that really does stand the test of time.
