In 2014 Felix Schlarmann released Counterlife, his first album as a leader, on Challenge Records (NL).
Over the years he also focused on being a bandleader and composer next to playing with numerous other projects.
Maybe called modern melodic jazz, the listener probably will have to find his own way in order to place the music in between styles. Schlarmann’s writing is influenced not only by jazz, since sound, energy and emotions are the most important parts of it.
