    JAZZ WITH THE MEGAPHONE
    Through an explosive debut album, a trio composed of young men, already expert musicians, set the tone for a mature record, powerful and clear in its intentions, with a precise and articulated vision of how to mix jazz and rock with strength and character in an instrumental work. The coherence and the depth of the compositions come together with melodic developments and explorations overflowing with ideas and variations which are stunning without becoming over-thought or pretentious.

    Matthew Schoening
    The Art of Live Looping
    Playing the electric cello through live looping and layering, Matthew takes you on a journey using layers of sounds and melodies. He utilizes the art of live looping as a method to create spaces that are full of many unfathomable cello sounds, from modern
    Matthew Schoening is a young up and coming artist who applies his unique style of composition and performance towards speaking to you through his music. Using live looping and layering techniques, Matthew takes you on a musical journey that is perfect for just about any activity or situation. Matthew has played everywhere from dance halls with his up-beat compositions, to concert halls with his more orchestral compositions. He has played Seattle Symphony Hall with a full orchestra backing him, to private parties in a living room. He has played for Yoga conventions and classes with his meditative and rhythmic sounds, to doubling up with DJ's and playing at popular dance clubs. Whether you want to snap into a creative mind set, practice some yoga, have dinner guests over, pursue active activities, meditate, or if you just want to listen to some great music, Matthew's music is for you. Since Matthew utilizes live looping and layering, what you hear on his recordings are what you hear at a live show. These are in fact live recordings that have captured a complete performance, rather than just the music itself.
