All that Jazz!

[DesZeLL]

So here we go lets start....

Ayok kita ngebahas siapa band or penyanyi jazz favorit kalian, please tell us why and what are the characteristic of the singer or the band a little bit of detail kalo misalnya mereka kurang begitu mendunia and if needed the sub-genre.

From Allmusic.com, a little bit of explanation of this genre

"Jazz has been called America's classical music, and for good reason. Along with the blues, its forefather, it is one of the first truly indigenous musics to develop in America, yet its unpredictable, risky ventures into improvisation gave it critical cache with scholars that the blues lacked. At the outset, jazz was dance music, performed by swinging big bands. Soon, the dance elements faded into the background and improvisation became the key element of the music. As the genre evolved, the music split into a number of different styles, from the speedy, hard-hitting rhythms of be-bop and the laid-back, mellow harmonies of cool jazz to the jittery, atonal forays of free jazz and the earthy grooves of soul jazz. What tied it all together was a foundation in the blues, a reliance on group interplay and unpredictable improvisation. Throughout the years, and in all the different styles, those are the qualities that defined jazz."

Musik Jazz sendiri sebenernya banyak banget Sub-genrenya, mulai dari yang sangat2 familiar banget seperti Acid & Swing, terus bossa, Latin Jazz, Fusion, Soul Jazz, etc. I'm not an expert here so please add some more girls Hidden Content

Gue sendiri sebenernya lebih suka Acid, soalnya gue suka banget the combination of jazz funk and the electronic looping style beginih its sumtin that I would totally love Hidden Content

My fave are of course the famous Incognito and Brand New Heavies, dan ada satu lagi namanya Dsound, kemaren dia ada nih di JJF 2008. They're excellent! You can really feel that the influence of Acid Jazz tapi masih ada elemen yang true to scandinavian music scene you still feel this "coldness" in their music.

I also love Lisa Ono, I though she had the most amazing voice ever! Not that I know each and every songs of hers by heart though...

Caesara, gue bilang dia tuh emang innovatif banget. Gue merasa dia seperti Linkin Parknya musik jazz, I mean bukan alirannya yah tapi si bassistnya kalo gue gak salah2 inget dan mixernya dia sangat2 mengingatkan gue akan DJnya Linkin Park. John Scoffieldpun keren banget manennya!

hey DesZell.. mau education soal apa? hehehhe.. gue juga (dulu) penyanyi jazz. skrg gue ke pop dan rock, krn jazz ga ngejual..

caesara, d'sound emang bagus, gue dengerin mrk dr thn 2002/2003 dikasih tau ex gitaris gue. banyak bgt grup jazz bagus2 dari scandinavian countries kaya mrk.

gue tinggal di belgi, untuk western europe, belgi termasuk maju bgt jazz nya. ada toots thielemans - pemain harmonica dan gitar jazz handal (gue udah ketemu, baik deh) ada ivan paduart - pianist (pernah main bareng dia) ada ernst vranckx, salah satu jazz pianis handal sini yg skrg juga keyboardist band gue.

ngomong2 soal tomorrow's people ensemble, drummer dan piano gue kenal, lg di conservatorium di belanda. adra sama zulhamsyah. jago2 mrk..

[DesZeLL]

Jakartaninbxl, dsound tuh emang keren banget yah! Mereka started in 2000 kan? Gue dah lama nih gak ngikutin mreka. Kalo yang mirip2 mereka dari scandinavian siapa? Gue scandinavian music lebih into twee popnya sih. Jadi jarang2 nemu yang seperti Dsound ini

BTW too bad, kalo main2 ke jakarta bilang2 yah Hidden Content

Dulu waktu masih di Melb gue juga sering sih main2 ke cafe2 yang suka ada live Jazz-nya gitu. Sayang gue disini kurang explore that side of the city. Gue denger yang punya 9 Muses tuh main jazz juga, kapan2 pengen kesana.

[cicaknemplok]
