 Still Got Me Goin' January 5, 2009
Siobhan Harris (Miami, FL)
Ah, Mark Farina. You know you can put a hurting on mixes. Would love to be in your head when you are putting these together. I have to say that as soon as you put it on, you know this is going to be a great journey. For me tracks 5 to 7 really got me going. I tend to repeat these. The only mix I wasn't crazy about tracks 10-13, but it hits me again from track 14 to the fabulous end. This cd is a buy as far as I'm concerned. Keeps me moving. ;-)

Mark Farina has done it again. Smooth Music with a bumping beat and vocals thrown it to add to the rhythm. If you are not a fan of Mark Farina and Mushroom jazz you should be. I could go on, but I'll keep it short and sweet. Buy this recording. You will not be disappointed.
 Maybe the Best Mushroom Jazz Yet!!! November 11, 2008
Greg Heist (Utica, MI)
Having just listened to Mushroom Jazz 6 for the first time, I can tell even from this first listen that this is probably going to become my favorite Mushroom Jazz album of the series.
Without a doubt, this is the volume that really emphasizes the "Jazz" part of its name. With a smooth, groovy and swinging vibe throughout, Mushroom Jazz 6 takes the listener on a wonderfully trippy tour of the jazzy side of Mark Farina's dope downtempo beats. My toe has been tapping and my head has been bobbing to the beat throughout, which is what it's all about, right??
Highly recommended. If you're familiar with the series, just buy it and be prepared to enjoy the sonic trip...
Very good, but fans can be disappointed. October 27, 2008

Yes indeed, it is a very good downtempo hiphop/acid jazz mix, really better than most of chill-out compilations on the market.
Unfortunately, I think fans won't find the magic of last Mushroom Jazz, especially the 2 and the 4.
Like in MJ 5, the trackselection is good but goes in a less coherent way compared to the other MJ. You won't find the strangeness and deepness of the 2, or the betwitching storytelling sound of the 4.
About the trackselection itself, you'll find here very good jazzy hiphop tracks, perhaps a bit more jazzy than the 5 The first 3 tracks are very good, Mark Farina'one "Life" is sweet too, and that's just examples.
But, Mark, where are the spoken vocals your placed through your Mushroom Jazz? Those spoken words which made your mixes like nothing else!
What a pity!
Perhaps that old fans will be disappointed, but for those who don't know Mushroom Jazz, it's still a strong release. There is no bad MJ!
Nevertheless, if you want the real cream of Mushroom Jazz, buy the two or the four with this one!
Another Farina Classic October 25, 2008
Lionel Kouadio (Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA)
WOW!! #6 already. This is good addition to the MJ serie. The sound is incredible, the mix is unique, no body else but Mr.Farina can put something like that. favorite tracks are #4, #2, and #17, the rest is also very good. If you're a fan of music, this will be a great addition to your collection. "Chapeau" Mr. Farina, another classsic.5/5..Peace and Love
