Editor's review
Tasty! This sonic chef (aka composer Maurice Oliver) provides quality home-cooked beats using flavors from hip-hop to Afro-Brazilian. A studied jazz musician, Oliver creates intelligently arranged and musically diverse downtempo delicacies. Those who crave Thievery Corporation, Boards of Canada, or DJ Krush will savor this selection.
