His first album, The Köln Konzert, was a remix cover mash-up of Keith Jarrett's original album, The Köln Concert.[1][2]

Recently he has moved to a more song-based sound, using his own vocals in songs that have similarities with Tom Waits and make use of ragtime piano and big band horns.[3]

History

After a first 12", Broken Breakbeat Bebop on the Bovinyl label in 1996, Vert was picked up by the label Sonig, where he has been ever since.[2] After living in several different cities in the United Kingdom, he moved to Cologne (Köln), Germany in 2001.
