Marvelous electronic jazz music

Koop - Waltz for koop

Personal comments

I discovered Koop 5 years ago with the song Waltz for Koop, a really beautiful song and if you appriciate this song just listen to Come To Me, you will fall in love of Koop songs.
While searching info about them on the Internet, I learned that they also provided music for the TV Show: Grey’s Anatomy.

Band biography

Koop is the Swedish electronic jazz duo of Magnus Zingmark and Oscar Simonsson from Uppsala, Sweden, formed in 1995. Though the music may sound as if it is played by a tight jazz group, it is actually sample-based. Thousands of small clips of drums, strings, horns, and choirs are taken from old records and puzzled together into new songs. This time consuming production process is one of the reasons Koop’s albums are released 4-5 years apart.

The group’s 3 albums all feature guest vocalists. On their latest, “Koop Islands”, the singers are Yukimi Nagano, Ane Brun, Hilde Louise Asbjornsen, Rob Gallagher and Mikael Sundin. Also contributing to the percussion, solos, and bass are Mattias Ståhl, Magnus Lindgren, Karl Frid, Nils Berg, Martin Höper, Ola Bothzén, Dan Berglund and Mats Lindfors.

Live, Koop transforms into a 7-9 piece swing orchestra including 1-3 singers. The lineup varies from time to time.

Koop prefers to label their music “romantic swingtronica”.

Did you know Robbie Williams was singing in a boys band?

Personal comments

Did you know Robbie Williams was a member of a boys band (Take that)? Whatever, Robbie Williams took music really seriously and did many successful songs. Famous in 1999 and 2000 I had one of the first MD (MiniDisc) provided from an artist (or major… you choose.)

Band biography

While Williams’ early pop career started with the hit boy band Take That, he has found far greater success since taking his leave. The band was formed in 1990 and had 8 United Kingdom Number 1 singles to their credit. Their popularity led to a succession of similar bands in the United Kingdom.

However, it has since been suggested that Williams’ roguish qualities meant that he didn’t fit into the band, and he frequently battled with his fellow band members and his management. After leaving the band in 1995, the final Take That album Nobody Else was re-issued in some markets excluding songs where Robbie Williams was the lead vocalist. The final Take That single, “How Deep Is Your Love,” is the only one that didn’t feature Williams.

In November 2005, ITV1 screened a documentary on Take That, including the reasons behind Williams’ departure, including interviews with Williams and his former fellow band members. Williams declined the offer to reunite with the band, but spoke to them via a pre-recorded video message.

Take That, reformed without Williams and due to tour in early- to mid- 2006, have extended an open invitation for Williams to join them on stage if he wishes to. Williams has apparently given the reformation his blessing.

After Take That

After leaving Take That, Williams immersed himself in the pop lifestyle. This included an affected swagger and an infamous appearance during Oasis’s headlining set at Glastonbury in 1995. He had dyed his hair platinum blond and painted his teeth black for the concert. Liam Gallagher, the lead singer for Oasis, often referred to Williams as “that fat dancer from Take That.”

Lemon Jelly, fun and great electronic music

Lemon Jelly - His Majesty King Raam

Personal comments

When I discovered Lemon Jelly it was in 2000 they was just beginning to be popular. I like all their albums and I sure you will appreciate one of them. Why? Because use a large of music knowledge and exploit them for creative and experimental music.

Band biography

Lemon Jelly (formed in 1998 was a British electronica duo from London, UK consisting of Nick Franglen and Fred Deakin.

Franglen and Deakin initially released three limited-circulation EPs, The Bath (1998), The Yellow (1999), and The Midnight (2000), which were then collected into a widely-released album in 2000, lemonjelly.ky, which was both a critical and a commercial success.

Their second album (and self-proclaimed first studio album), Lost Horizons, was released in 2002, and was another success.

Their last album, 2005’s ’64-‘95, featured a sticker to warn listeners that “This is our new album. It’s not like our old album.” The title comes from the fact that each track features a single sample drawn from years between 1964 and 1995, incorporating each sample in a variety of imaginative ways.

Some of their best or well-known songs are:

• The Staunton Lick
• Kneel Before Your God
• Space Walk
• Nice Weather For Ducks
• ’75 aka Stay With You
• ’90 aka A Man Like Me

They have also made mix sets for Radio 1’s Mary-Anne Hobbs’ ‘Breezeblock’ show, as well as for a variety of other shows (6 Mix, XFM’s ‘The Hijack’, The Blue Room, etc). They have remixed a number of other artists, including Badly Drawn Boy, Pet Shop Boys and Coldcut, as well as collaborating with William Shatner on a track from his latest album.

Fred Deakin is also co-founder and creative director of print and interactive design agency, Airside

Best jazz guitarist I know

John Pizzarelli - L-O-V-E

Personal comments

I LOVE THIS JOHN PIZZARELLI! Damn! he is so good! Those jazy love songs and sometimes energic. You can listen to all his albums it’s a must to have. I wish to see him in concert. Many jazz classics standards taken back but really well played. Ok so he not only play very well guitar but listen to his voice he is incredible! Not convince? Look at this video from the well know song I Got Rythm (and it’s also one of my favorite):

Biography

John Pizzarelli has had a multi-faceted career as a jazz guitarist, vocalist and bandleader. Internationally known for classic standards, late-night ballads, and the cool jazz flavor he brings to his performances and recordings, he has recently established himself as the consummate entertainer and radio program host with the launch of “Radio Deluxe with John Pizzarelli” a nationally syndicated radio program co-hosted with his wife, Broadway star Jessica Molaskey.

Born on April 6, 1960, in Paterson, New Jersey, Pizzarelli has been playing guitar since age six, following in the tradition of his father, guitar legend Bucky Pizzarelli. Hanging out with his father, John was exposed to all the great jazz music of the era, from Erroll Garner and Les Paul to Django Reinhardt. He began playing with his father at age 20, before going out on his own.

John Pizzarelli has recorded as a bandleader for RCA, Chesky, Stash and Novus, and in 1997 appeared in the Broadway musical Dream, a revue of Johnny Mercer songs. Along the way, Pizzarelli and his band have earned rave reviews. Reviewers often compare the Pizzarelli Trio to jazz icons such as Nat “King” Cole: “The John Pizzarelli Trio has never been tighter, and Pizzarelli himself has never been looser,” said The Village Voice of a recent New York show. “We can say we’re as lucky to listen to as Nat Cole fans were in the years before he became a legend.”

Should I put I Got Rythm?

Pour info, l’Arménie est un pays se situant juste à l’est de la Turquie et au sud de la Géorgie. Erevan est ainsi la capitale arménienne et compte à ce jour près d’1,2 million d’habitants. Si dans les années 90, divers tremblements de terre ont rendu cette ville moins attractive, les années ont passé et c’est maintenant un vrai plaisir d’organiser un séjour dans ce pays du Caucase.

Petite note personnel : Je trouve les photos vraiment bien avec de bons contrastes et surtout une super belle prise ce qui permet de voir que les pièces sont spacieuses.

Always remember them

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Under The Bridge

Personal comments

Teenager music that I was usually listening with my sister. 2 days ago she told me that I will be uncle!

Band biography

Red Hot Chili Peppers are a funk rock band that is based in Hollywood, California and was formed in 1983, in Los Angeles, California. Since 1998, the band has consisted of founding members Anthony Kiedis (vocals) and Michael “Flea” Balzary (bass) along with longtime members John Frusciante (guitar) and Chad Smith (drums).

The band initially formed for a once-off support act for a friend’s band, calling themselves Tony Flow And The Miraculously Majestic Masters Of Mayhem. Upon renaming themselves Red Hot Chili Peppers, they played a handful of small club venues in Los Angeles in 1983, before they were signed to EMI Records.

The Chili Peppers’ original guitarist, Slovak, was replaced in 1984 by Jack Sherman, while Slovak and Irons recorded music with their band at the time, What Is This? Upon Slovak’s return, Sherman was fired from the band.

Following Slovak’s death of a heroin overdose, a young John Frusciante took over as guitarist in 1988. Frusciante, however, quit the band in 1992 due in part to his sadness at the band becoming so successful in such a short time; complex personal issues, involving an addiction to heroin, were also a factor.
