“This Week’s Best Albums” // ALARM Magazine [Review]
More praise for our new album… ALARM Magazine names Adventures in Paradise as one of “This Week’s Best Albums“:
Celebrating the 50th anniversary of Hawaii’s statehood, the Waitiki 7 balances a thematic tribute to Martin Denny and musical stars of yore with piano-driven Latin sounds, modern jazz, lounge, and film motifs. Adventures in Paradise, as the name suggests, could double as the soundtrack for a cheery private-dick mystery flick, calling upon exotic vocal calls, flute, horns, and vibraphone to create just the right mood.—Scott Merrow
And some kind remarks from CampusCircle.com:
I was pleasantly surprised with the ancient yet melodic sound found on the band’s new album, Adventures in Paradise. The songs were reminiscent of a tropical jungle with a hypnotizing blend of animal sounds and instrumental beats.—Grady Winn
