A type of instrumental jazz improvisation totally void of any understanding of jazz. The use of far too many notes in an attempt to fool the listener into thinking that once in a while, due to probability something will sound almost OK. De-Boppers usually carry around an over inflated sense of importance and worth, while surrounding themselves with non-jazzers who bolster the individuals ego. Jamey Aebersold invented over 100 books to combat this type of egotistical musical genocide so that real jazz musicians could be left to performing in public and the De-bopper only play in his bedroom to backing tracks until they are good enough!
Hey man, did you hear that De-bopper blow his horn this afternoon? Miles was turning in his gave man. Its like the cat has never heard a single jazz record.
Hell man, that fool really de-bopped the shit out of that set. I bet Jamey Aebersold wonders why he wasted so much paper trying to help his ass.
