爵士贝司手Peter Muller2003年发行的首张专集！发行后深受好评！个人也觉得
是一张非常棒的贝司专集！值得推荐！


According to what I’ve heard from bassist and multi-instrumentalist Peter Muller
so far, is that he clearly understands that by sculpting the elements of jazz plus
the variables of funk equals a probing fusion sound called M-Vibez. As a musician,
Peter’s has scored and produced an amazingly funky new project on his own record
label qualifying him as an innovator while engaging in the reality of ownership.
M-Vibez is an expression of Peter Muller’s musical persona, listen closely and
discover a provocatively funky new voice in today’s jazz.

The Players: Peter Muller ~ Lead & Background Bass Guitar, Synths, Samples & FX,
Drum, Percussion and Guitar programming, Vocoder & Vocals, Frank Mead ~ Alto, Soprano
sax and flute, Christian Kappe ~ Trumpet, Tobias Neumann ~ Rhodes & Organ Licks, Steve
Weiters ~ Guitar, Oliver Spanuth ~ Drum Samples & Cymbals, Florian Poser ~ Vibes,
Muhammed Paul ~ Synth Pad, and Ulie Rode ~ Acoustic Guitar



Muller comes out of the box with a tight funk laced groove entitled “Trigger” (for
Marcus) you immediately get the jest where Peter Muller is going musically with straight
in your face Miller style funk. Muller’s slap technique is used in full force assuring
you that he’s about the business of the groove. His sidemen adapt by anchoring these
funk-dipped grooves with trumpet solos by Christian Kappe and Tobias Neumann’s Rhodes
and organ stimulates the mood on the jazzy tip.

“Kasbah” is the second track opening with percussive fragments programmed by Muller;
soon his slap technique gives you a clue that the groove is about to begin. Consider the
Englishman’s influences musically Mark King of Level 42, Marcus Miller, Stanley Clarke
the evidence is clear cut and darn right funky to the bone!

The next track is called “Pretty Hot and Tempting /Phat”; Peter walks the bass slow
sliding up and down the fret (also using the vocoder) Neumann’s keys accents the interlude
of what is to be another MM inspired groove. The band drops in giving up they’re individual
dose of groove making this a hip appetizing jazz flavor to savor between listens.

“Mauritius” changes directions by slowing down the tempo showing the more melodic side of
his qualities as a songwriter. After listening to “Mauritius” you might do a double take
simply because the track is nice but doesn’t necessarily gel with the previous tracks.

A chanting monk voice intercedes at the intro of “Eastbound” soon seduced by percussive
beats and the vamping yet rapacious bass licks by Muller! Eastbound is a bass lovers delight
that’s if you’re into slap funk grooves, the enchanting monk voice blends perfectly adding
cohesive textures and flavors.

“Lounge Creepers” at the interlude and extended version melted together at the 6th & 7th
position on the cd. Muller’s homey and label-mate saxophonist Frank Mead coupled with an
appearance by vibe wizard Florian Poser creeps in with an intense solo smoothing the ruff
edges of the groove keepin’ the flavor of jazz in sync.

Peter’s versatility is a pleasant surprise as found here on “I’ll Be There”; again,
Muller turns to the softer side of his musical repertoire. Saxophonist Frank Mead offers
the warmth that one would expect to hear from a seasoned saxophonist.

“M-Vibez” the title track steps in at the 9th spot and of course, as you would imagine
Muller turns it up. Kappe plays flugelhorn here adding a fresh voice layered with noticeable
jazz textures calling you the listener in for a short visit.

Out of the three mid-tempo tracks on “M-Vibez”, I found “After You’ve Gone” penned by
Muller and Neumann most appealing. Hmmm, maybe because Muller not only solos eloquently he
opts to use Neumann on the piano giving this composition a jazzier tone along with an intimate
feel to this particular piece.

“Peaceful World” concludes this set of eleven tasty gems with Muller playing all instruments
including the Vocoder & Vocals, as he welcomes us to his place a Peaceful World.

Peter Muller, is consistent throughout M-Vibez with the pulse of his creative voice he has
accurately tapped into the fusion of Jazz, Funk, Soul, R & B, Hip Hop, and Latin Vibes making
“M-Vibez” and enjoyable and challenging listening experience for those of you that are
seeking a refreshing alternative to the mainstream called M-Vibez!
