MOCEAN WORKER - CINCO DE MOWO! (CALABRO MUSIC) |
| |
Dance jazz? Awesome. Mocean Worker masterfully merges classic jazz club stylings with today's electronic dance festiveness to create a disc that is irresistible and a whole helluva lot of fun. It helps to like jazz, of course, but even if you don't, the joy-driven hooks of this re-presentation of jazz flavors might make you overlook your grudge with jazz (and, really, why should you have a problem with one of the music world's great genres?). Fine, so I'm a tad biased. But that doesn't change the fact that this album is packed with fun-making tunes and a wicked blend of dance grooves and brass, woodwind and piano (not to mention some organic percussion besides the electronically generated beats). Each track brings together its own unique combination of instrumentation and rhythms. This album stays cool all the way through; one's attention span is rarely threatened herein. This is the kind of music great parties are made of. You can keep your DJ-of-the-Month club (just joshing); this is the hot, freshly baked goodies your ears and dancing legs deserve. -- review by Kristofer Upjohn
