- Yoko has a love for bebop.
She was there right from the start,
she inspired the entire world.
Her music has inspired this show from top to bottom.
- When I heard they had Yoko Kanno attached
for our adaptation, I was like that was kind of
a deal sealer for me.
I just wanted to be associated with that music really.
It sets this apart from anything else that I've ever seen.
- Okay, three, two, one, let's jam.
(smooth music)
- It's all based on jazz.
I think that the great thing about jazz
is this kind of free form, freestyle,
like it comes from like the heart.
The music really kind of like informs the show,
versus the show informing the music.
- The music is just so beautiful
and so ahead of its time
and it just so groundbreaking.
(smooth music)
- Yoko was very much in the place of like,
I want to, I'm gonna, I'm gonna redo that one.
I love that one, but I'm gonna redo it
because what you have created warrants a bit of reinvention.
(smooth music)
Working with Yoko is like working with a pure musician.
She feels it,
she hears it,
there is just something new and dynamic.
(smooth music)
