AE 3D Motor

Mel
AE 3D Motor is one of the coolest racing games for Windows Phone 7. Published by AE Mobile, it is one of those games that make good use of the accelerometer. It’s for casual play, but there is plenty here to keep you coming back for more. Players are on a motorcycle, racing past sidewalks, cars, trucks and other vehicles, all the while trying not to crash. Points are awarded when you zip past some vehicles. Bonus points are also available. You control the rider by tilting your phone.

Monica
As the name suggests, Blanket Truth's second full-lenght and final album Urban Wildlife is a jungle of lo-fi indie pop. Hailing from Seattle, the band is the brainchild of Jon Manning and Eli Damm. In this 11-track collection, the duo collaborated with several guest vocals and musicians using a variety of instruments such as ukelele, banjo, xylophone, and singing saw, to name a few. With Watercolor Paintings, Pangea, James Rabbit, and Shelby Sifers as musical influences, this album will surely give you a rich slice of folk heaven.

All India Radio is a four piece crew from the land down under. Even if you've never heard of them, chances are you might have encountered their songs from TV shows like CSI: Miami, One Tree Hill or Australia's premiere series, Bondi Rescue. They've released 8 albums since 2000 and continue to impress as well as win over more listeners thanks to their ambient sound.

Valerie
Amber Rubarth's music goes well with that morning cup of coffee as you stare out the window and enjoy the quiet morning.

The Sunpilots music echo a bunch of genres at the same time.
