Thank You Dane Jackson and Ska, Punk, and Other Junk !
"It’s been a long wait, but Brussels’ world ensemble Jaune Toujours is back with their seventh studio album, and it’s absolutely worth it! For nearly 30 years, they’ve been lighting up every party I DJ with their unique, irresistible sound. This is a seasoned band that unapologetically does its own thing, ignoring commercial trends while staying deeply socially engaged. They tackle big issues like wars, refugee crises, climate change, and authoritarian politics, weaving these themes into their music with bold creativity and no boundaries. Their sound is as multilingual as Brussels itself, driven by groove, brass, and accordion—what they call "kick-ass roots in its most energetic form!"

"With Vertigo, after some six years, Brussels-based Jaune Toujours once again evaluates the society we live in (...) It makes you dizzy and so Vertigo seemed an appropriate title to capture the spirit of the times."

"Meanwhile, *Vertigo* has been released as a single that evokes both the street atmosphere of Paris and Kingston. A sleazy ski atmosphere with fanfare sounds, but also On-U-Sound influences and makes life a little less heavy."

"The song combines catchy horns, accordion riffs and ambient treble sounds. The first line of the chorus is “the world is so vast it makes you dizzy.” The lyrics reflect how difficult it is to stay afloat in these times, where society and, by extension, the entire world seem to be under pressure, but they also express resilience."
Thank you Snoozecontrol for mentioning our new single Vertigo and the album release concert at Ancienne Belgique !
