Miller, Marcus

Marcus Miller is an American bassist and producer. He has worked on more than 500 projects including his own work. Miller comes from a musical family, his father played the organ in the church and also conducted the choir there. His related uncle Wynton Kelly was Miles Davis' jazz pianist in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Miller is known for his career as a bass guitarist practicing the slapping technique known as "Slapping Bass". He also plays piano, bass clarinet and soprano saxophone. As a producer he has produced for many musicians including David Sanborn, Kenny Garrett his saxophonist and Lalah Hathaway.

At the age of 13, Miller was already quite good at piano, clarinet and bass guitar and started composing. By the age of 15 he was already playing regularly with various bands in New York, shortly afterwards he played and wrote songs for jazz flutist Bobbi Humphrey and keyboardist Lonnie Liston Smith. In the following years, he worked as a session musician, working for Aretha Franklin, Roberta Flack, Grover Washington Jr. and David Sanborn. He appeared on more than 400 records as a bassist and collaborated on songs by the likes of Joe Sample, McCoy Tyner, Bill Withers, Elton John, Bryan Ferry, Jay Z and LL Cool J. In 1981 Miller joined his childhood hero Miles Davis in the band and toured with his band for 2 years. According to Miller, it is Miles Davis who helped develop his style. After working as a producer for musicians for some time, Miles Davis and Miller started working together again and this time Miller was allowed to write and produce an album for Miles Davis. This became the famous Tutu album; the first of the eventual 3 albums he would go on to produce for Miles Davis. In 1993, Miller began his solo career and released the album The Sun Don't Lie . It was clear to hear that the bass guitar could also be played in a different way, question and answer bass lines could be heard in combination with a lot of funk and soul. In 1995 Tales came out where jazz and blues were central. The 1997 live album Live and More and the 2001 M2 album followed. From 1990, Miller focused heavily on producing music for films such as "House Party", "Boomerang", "Siesta" and "Ladies Man".

On January 26, 2015, a documentary about Miller's life called "Marcus, the film" was released. It featured many musicians such as Ahmad Jamal, George Benson, Herbie Hancock, Kenny Washington and Larry Graham.

His most recent studio album is Afrodeezia which is dated March 2015.

Marcus Miller is een Amerikaanse bassist en producer. Hij heeft aan meer dan 500 projecten meegewerkt waaronder zijn eigen werk. Miller komt uit een muzikale familie, zijn vader speelde orgel in de kerk en dirigeerde het koor daar ook. Zijn aanverwante oom Wynton Kelly was jazzpianist van Miles Davis in de late jaren 1950 en begin jaren 1960. Miller staat bekend om zijn carrière als basgitarist waar hij de slaptechniek, ook wel "Slapping Bass", uitoefent. Hij speelt ook piano, basklarinet en sopraansaxofoon. Als producer heeft hij voor veel muzikanten waaronder David Sanborn, Kenny Garrett zijn saxofonist en Lalah Hathaway geproduceerd.

Op de leeftijd van 13 jaar kon Miller al aardig uit de voeten op piano, klarinet en basgitaar en begon hij composities te maken. Op zijn 15e speelde hij al regelmatig met diverse bands in New York, kort daarop speelde hij en schreef hij liedjes voor jazzfluitist Bobbi Humphrey en toetsenist Lonnie Liston Smith. De jaren daarop werkte hij als sessiemuzikant en heeft hij voor Aretha Franklin, Roberta Flack, Grover Washington jr. en David Sanborn gewerkt. Hij verscheen op meer dan 400 platen als bassist en werkte mee aan liedjes van onder andere Joe Sample, McCoy Tyner, Bill Withers, Elton John, Bryan Ferry, Jay Z en LL Cool J. In 1981 kwam Miller bij zijn jeugdheld Miles Davis in de band en toerde 2 jaar met diens band. Volgens Miller is het Miles Davis die hielp zijn stijl te ontwikkelen. Na enige tijd als producer voor muzikanten gewerkt te hebben, begonnen Miles Davis en Miller weer samen te werken en dit keer mocht Miller voor Miles Davis een album schrijven en produceren. Dit werd het bekende Tutu album; het eerste van de uiteindelijke 3 albums die hij zou gaan produceren voor Miles Davis. In 1993 begon Miller zijn solocarrière en bracht hij het album The Sun Don't Lie uit. Hierop was duidelijk te horen dat de basgitaar ook anders bespeeld kon worden, vraag en antwoord-baslijnen waren te horen in combinatie met veel funk en soul. In 1995 kwam Tales uit waar jazz en blues centraal stonden. Het live album Live and More uit 1997 en het M2-album uit 2001 volgden daarop. Vanaf 1990 richtte Miller zich veel op het muziek produceren voor films zoals "House Party", "Boomerang", "Siesta" en "Ladies Man".

Op 26 Januari 2015 kwam er een documentaire uit over het leven van Miller, genaamd "Marcus, the film". Er werkten veel muzikanten aan mee zoals Ahmad Jamal, George Benson, Herbie Hancock, Kenny Washington en Larry Graham.

Zijn meest recente studio-album is Afrodeezia dat dateert van maart 2015.
