Hold On, I'm Coming Jazz Frontline MPS Season 1 New Discovery Encounter ~Deconstruction of Jazz by Club Culture~ What is Hip Hop? Hip Hop is a music and culture that respects all genres of popular music from the past, while at the same time freely or arbitrarily reusing them to create new music. In other words, it is not destruction, but rebirth, discovery, and creation. It all starts from here. This is a historical invention born in the 1980s and 90s that unconsciously resonated with the re-evaluation of ideas such as Jacques Derrida's \"deconstruction\" in France in the 1960s and Michel Foucault's \"Archaeology of Knowledge\"?in other words, \"postmodernism.\" 90s club culture was a counter to \"disco as an entertainment device\" by a generation that had been baptized by hip-hop, and at the same time, it was a new source and creation of music and culture. With the emergence of Giles Peterson, born in France and raised in London, disco DJs, who had previously been merely providers of entertainment, transformed into new \"expressers\" of music: \"club DJs\" and \"record labels.\" Popular music, which had previously been nothing more than consumer goods, became a treasure trove of cultural assets. This is what gave rise to \"Acid Jazz\" and \"Talkin' Loud\" from the UK. In Japan, a new movement also occurred around the same time. Toru Hashimoto's indie book \"Suburbia Suite,\" which appeared in 1992 with great surprise and impact, became even more dynamic in 1994 as the CD compilation series \"Free Soul.\" It is widely known that Toru Hashimoto was the editor of the magazine \"Brutus.\" This is not unrelated to the fact that Toshikazu Kanazawa of the \"Light Mellow\" series began his career as a music writer after editing and publishing a mini-magazine. Editors are \"creators\" who weave new \"knowledge\" while repeatedly rediscovering \"knowledge\" within a continuity from the past. The fact that DJs and compilers are expressive through music is synonymous with the fact that editors are expressive through words. Many generations in Japan were greatly influenced by the passionate currents of music and culture that emerged in the 90s, such as club culture and postmodernism, which were based on a perspective of \"re-evaluation\" and \"rediscovery,\" in other words, \"deconstruction.\" These are the Giles Peterson children, and the legacy continues to be passed down as Toru Hashimoto followers. \"JAZZ Frontline\" is a compilation series of 21st-century \"re-evaluations\" and \"reconstructions\" of hip-hop and club culture, edited from the unique perspective of the 90s generation, aimed at themselves and the current new generation. And at the same time, this is a new \"rediscovery\" series that pays deep respect to the \"re-evaluation movement\" of the 1990s. From [JAZZ FRONT LINE] with Love MPS is headquartered in the Black Forest, located in the (former) state of Baden-W?rttemberg, West Germany. Baden-W?rttemberg is an industrial city where the Mercedes-Benz Group and Porsche have their headquarters. It has an atmosphere that somehow resonates with Motown (Detroit) and Chess Records in Chicago, one of the leading industrial cities in the United States. This is probably not unrelated to MPS's unique \"high sound quality.\" That's just how cities are. After World War II, Germany, like Japan, was under Allied rule and divided into East and West Germany. West Germany, in particular, was under the divided rule of the United States, Britain, and France, and it gained independence as a country in 1955, considerably later than Japan. The background of MPS (SABA) working on a lot of jazz, especially jazz by American artists, can be understood from this. West Germany had many US military bases, and even at the time of the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, there were 47 major bases alone. It is said that approximately 250,000 US soldiers were stationed there, and more than 500 military facilities were located throughout West Germany. In Japan, the largest number of US soldiers stationed is around 30,000 in Okinawa. In other words, postwar West Germany was under the strong influence of the United States in all aspects of politics, economy, culture, and human exchange, just like Japan, or even more so. In the late 1960s, young people and artists in West Germany were strongly influenced by thinkers known as the Frankfurt School (critical theory). In particular, Herbert Marcuse's \"The One-Dimensional Man\" and \"An Attempt at Liberation\" had a great influence not only on his own country but also on the May 1968 revolution in neighboring France and the student movement in Japan. Marcuse, who had fled to the United States from the Nazis, later returned to his homeland and would go on to have a great influence on West German thinkers, politicians, young people, entertainers, and artists. The depth of the multi-layered historical correlation between the United States and West Germany, encompassing not only this individual event but also the process leading up to it, can be glimpsed, even from 21st-century Japan. MPS is not a label started as a hobby by a German jazz enthusiast. It is densely packed music from an \"era of upheaval and transformation,\" filled with all sorts of emotions?love, hatred, business, politics, respect?between West Germany and the United States. There you will find Oscar Peterson's brilliant, virtuosic jazz, jazz-rock and crossover, experimental progressive jazz and free jazz, fusion, beautiful jazz harmonies, soul jazz, and avant-garde jazz that blends multinational nomad and ethnic influences?each one meticulously, orderly, and brilliantly shining. All of this is MPS jazz.
