A drum-kit in constant movement, a bass always in control of the situation, a liquid and unstoppable piano and guitar which are at the same time capable of uniting distant worlds... This is the first impression on listening to “Mr Zombie Orchestra”, a group which demonstrates to even the most distracted listener that they posses far more musical references than that which they mentioned in their musical program, which includes both Jelly Roll Morton and Secondo Casadei (but to whom we can easily add Anibal Troilo, Georges Bizet, Danny Elfman, Ennio Morricone, Django Reinhardt and the list certainly doesn’t end here).
The impression given is one of skilful research which supports an “omnivorous” taste, which magically gives the feeling of completeness and style. “Mr Zombie” drags the public into a fairy-tale, recreating the atmosphere of an orchestra at the start of the 20th century, one that mixes valzer, jazz, mazurca and tango, with no other aim but the entertainment of the public and their own musical enjoyment. This orchestra in question, rather than re-emerging from an oleographic past, seems to definitely come from the third millenium or even another one, being more similiar in many ways to the “cantina band” of the bees of Star Wars than to some swing remakes in the recent past. The result is something far different to the material used, one which both surprises and fascinates because of the continuous prestidigitations operated by these young apprentice wizards.
The indisputabile excellence of this quartet, at ease with all the musical styles that they mix in their magical cauldron, makes the project uniquely interesting in the Italian musical panorama, one that is, in these times, so hungry for intelligent music.
