"I bought this album and The Best having heard DAB on the Cafe del Mar series. There are a lot of artists displaying their wares in the CdM gallery, so a song has to really stand out for me to consider following it up. 'Pure Joy' caught my attention on CdM 13, and later I heard, and saw the video to The Call' on You Tube. I was still hesitant about ordering these disks, as so many bands now are inconsistent in both style & quality; there were no samples to listen to; and no one had previously reviewed either of these albums.

My concern proved unnecessary. For the most part consistently good songs evocative of those dreamy Ibiza evenings sought on the CdM albums. If you have enjoyed DABs offerings on CdM, chances are you'll enjoy these two albums.

Best 2, by the way, is, in my opinion, the better of the two releases so far."
