Mostly Other People Do the Killing: Blue
by Maurizio Comandini
Una domanda sorge spontanea: ma con questo Blue cosa volevano dimostrare? Il gruppo di Moppa Elliott si è scelto da subito un nome molto intrigante, Mostly Other People Do the Killing, che di sicuro non li fa passare inosservati. Poi, dal 2003, il quartetto ha cominciato un percorso artistico molto interessante che per certi versi fa ...
Falso d'autore o geniale trovata? Il caso di "Blue" dei Mostly Other People Do The Killing
by Enrico Bettinello
Per provare a capire il nuovo lavoro dei Mostly Other People Do the Killing, senza limitarsi a notare solo “quanto sono bravi a rifare esattamente -o quasi-nota per nota la musica dell'originale Kind of Blue“ o a bollare l'operazione come una sorta di divertissement vagamente situazionista e fondamentalmente inutile, sono piuttosto interessanti le annotazioni che il ...
Mostly Other People Do the Killing: Blue
by Mark Corroto
Imagine coming home from work to find the furniture in your house was moved and say, your tooth brush is now on the other side of the bathroom sink. A few inches here, and a few inches there. Would you notice? Maybe yes, if you had been gone just a day. What happens in the same ...
Sort of Blue: Clone or Art?
By this time on Tuesday, the jazz community will likely be in an uproar—or will at least be dumbfounded. Blue, a new album by the quintet Mostly Other People Do the Killing, has broken a taboo of sorts by recreating the Miles Davis Sextet's Kind of Blue, note for note. I write about the album (due ...
Jon Irabagon Trio: It Takes All Kinds
by Enrico Bettinello
Scegliere come altri vertici di un triangolo due musicisti pieni di storia e esperienza come Mark Helias (contrabbasso) e Barry Altschul (batteria) è una scelta che racconta già da sola molte cose. È la scelta di Jon Irabagon, sassofonista che abbiamo potuto ammirare anche in Italia negli ultimi anni, con i Mostly Other People Do The ...

Mostly Other People Do the Killing: Red Hot!
by Dave Wayne
I've been too busy enjoying the music of Mostly Other People Do The Killing (MOPTDK) to realize how controversial they've become. If you doubt their ability to rile the jazz world, all you have to do is post one of their videos on your Facebook page and wait for the ensuing kerfuffle to begin. The core ...
John McNeil: Hush Point
by Dave Wayne
Anyone who has played music with others on a regular basis understands inherently that, during a live performance, the sounds emanating from the instruments themselves have a way of clashing or canceling each other out.
