On Ping Machine‘s third album, DES TRUCS PAREILS the assembly (14 musicians), continues his quest for excess genres, modernity and maturity. In his new compositions, Fred Maurin favored a poetic musical architecture and contrasts, highlighting the links between jazz and popular music on the one hand and contemporary music on the other. In this ongoing research, Ping Machine enjoys pushing the rules: melodic and harmonic explorations, use of spectral techniques of writing, development microtonal or serial, confrontations blocks of sound, interweaving of writing and improvisation in order to project the listener in real image sequences, sound conducive to escape.

Compositions bursting with energy, a real signature sound, (...), remarkable soloists, (...), a formation wich lends itself to improvisation, (...), it really was a tremendous pleasure to hear them play that night.” (Jean-Marc Gélin, JazzBox on Radio Aligre)

“Fred makes the orchestra sounds with a real brilliance (...) Drive, sense of drama and outcomes, colors and dynamics...” (Franck Bergerot, Jazz Magazine, France)

"Ils traduisent, avec toute l’élégance de leur énergie créative, le travail d’un tout inventif, constamment sur la brèche, qui déploie des couleurs en perpétuel renouvellement au fil d’une exploration passionnante. Une aventure bariolée, qui ne laisse jamais l’auditeur au bord de la route." (Citizen Jazz 12/11, Denis Desassis)

"Coup de cœur pour ce quasi big band aux envolées chaudes et puissantes, au sein duquel chaque musicien s’exprime dans un état de liberté dont on ressent vite le besoin à la manière d’une dépendance. Une réponse flamboyante aux fossoyeurs récurrents du jazz, qui est ici plus que vivant. Il bouillonne!" (Maitre Chronique 12/12)
