Loungey Head Nod, but with a Street Kick

Monday’s Are Beat

Mark Farina’s sixth installment of his astounding Mushroom Jazz series is potentially one of his best. He has made a name for himself over the last 15 years through building San Francisco’s house scene. The album is downtempo at its best and a necessary listen for fans of jazz, house, hip-hop, soul and R&B. The man has been working on his craft since he was 15 years old and his efforts are eloquently displayed on his latest album.

“I look at my job as a modern day traveling minstrel, to bring new music to as many places as I can, and expose obscure records that, otherwise, might go hidden.” - Mark Farina
