Charles Mingus died in 1979, but thanks to Fables of Fungus is more alive than ever. In order to develop Mingus' compositions and play them live, the double-bass player Fre Madou (of DAAU) assembled several leading young musicians: Bram Weijters, Bart Huysnetruyt, Vincent Brijs, Andrew Claes, Sara Meyer, Bart Borremans and Dree Peremans. The eight of them together make for a tremendous burst of energy. They picked up their motto from Mingus too: 'Making the simple complicated is commonplace; making the complicated simple, awesomely simple, that's creativity.'
