Charlie Parker Remix Project – Bird Up – Review
May 1st, 2004| THE CHARLIE PARKER REMIX PROJECT “BIRD UP” SAVOY JAZZ Very often the masters of Jazz are revisited in electronic music and the result is all but interesting, sometimes even cheesy and unrespectful. This time is different. You have to have guts to try to revisit Charlie Parker’s work. Parker revolutioned Jazz music in the 40’s with his fresh, wild and visceral style. All the artists in this record have paid a wonderful tribute to his music by offering a respectful version with creativity and good taste. The Charlie Parker Remix Project includes artists from very different music genres, including contemporary string masters Kronos Quartet, unique vocalist Serj Tankian from Hard Rock band System of a Dawn, multi-talented producer Dan the Automator, spinning virtuosos X-Ecutioners, and the legendary blues man Dr. John. All the tracks are brand new pieces of really brilliant and tasteful contemporary music where electronica and jazz keep breaking boundaries in the 21st Century. ………………………………..
