Review: From www.jazzchill.blogspot.com: Adam Dorn a.k.a. Mocean Worker (pronounced Motion Worker) has assembled the quintessential feel-good summer record of 2007. In what has become the incomparable Mocean Worker sound, Dorn mixes and matches the best of modern beat-making with live musicians like trumpeters Herb Alpert and Steven Bernstein, bassist Marcus Miller, alto saxophonist Cochemea Gastelum and vocalists Morley and Alana Da Fonseca.

Tarwater - Spider Smile - Morr Music
Genre: Electronic/Indie
Grade: B+
Review: Press release: For 'Spider Smile,' electro duo Tarwater (Bernd Jestram and Ronald Lippok) have found astonishing and decidedly more pop friendly songs...With roots in East-Berlin's sub culture and the avant-garde...the recording studio is still their favorite instrument, a number of analogue instruments are also in the mix, creating dark-dub backdrops for some songs, echoing melancholy remnants of shadowy melodies.
Listen! 2, 7, 8, 9, 10
Various Artists - Backspin - Six Degrees
Genre: Electronic/World
Grade: A-
Review: A 10th anniversary project from Six Degrees Records. Featuring electronica/world genre remixes of classic songs by The Police, Herbie Hancock, The Cure, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, Bob Marley, and more.
