Comment: there are represented 9 amusing and uplifting ditties by Jay Curry, a producer from Long Beach & Coachella Valley, Los Angeles, USA. The album is a follow-up to Vanity issued in 2010. Similarly to Rimar, Phaseone, htrspltn, Ears, and Max Tannone (though he is not a mash-up activist in the first sense), he uses a sort of recycling approach to create new songs. More profoundly, trip-hop beats are seamlessly set below sunshiny, blissed-out layers of The US-based urban-approved music (digi funk, hip-hop, trip-hop) and lofty bossa nova floatation. In the ending track Web Surf Jay Curry is assisted by the Estonian superb trio Music For Your Plants. Ultimately, let`s invent a new genre name (cinemawave) for such music because the album makes your day.
