koop means co-operation and come from a universe where miles davis
never made bitches brew, replacing swing with funk, but instead
double basses kept walking and jazz kept swinging all the way
until the sampler arrived to chop it up. not electronic music with
a touch of jazz, but jazz sparingly laced with electronics.
what's really co-operating in koopÆs music, apart from the core
duo of composers / arrangers / producers magnus zingmark and oscar
simonsson with their wide range of collaborators, is the sixties
vocaljazz-magic of swedish icon monica zetterlund with a
producer-focused 2001.
magnus zingmark and oscar simonsson, both from swedenÆs main
university-town uppsala, now residing in stockholm, were the first
two jazzheads in their hometown to lose interest in the perpetual
hammond organ-licking of jimmy smith. instead they embarked
together down the more rewarding paths of hardbop and raw latin
beats, avoiding fusionÆs tendency to dilute the original spirit of
jazz.
arriving at that point from, in magnusÆ case, hip hopÆs golden age
of public enemy and boogie down productions to the detroit-techno
euphoria of inner city and their acid house-cousins and, in
oscarÆs case, from birdÆs parkers mood and john coltraneÆs alabama
to playing the piano in a succession of diy-jazz combos, the two
decided to join forces in helping swedish jazz regain that
momentum itÆs lacked ever since the sixties when all creativity
and forward thinking talent escaped the genre. perceiving jazz as
rhythm and form rather than the orthodox idea of jazz being merely
improvisation, koop manages to escape the staleness of both some
programmed musicÆs lack of variety, and some contemporary jazz
recordingsÆ dead end fixation with clean sound.
