"Hier staat inmiddels een zeer goed geöliede machine op het podium die overtuigend laat horen dat de multiculturele samenleving wel degelijk een doorslaand succes is."

“By now, a well-oiled machine stands on stage, convincingly proving that multicultural society is indeed a resounding success.”

VERTIGO by Jaune Toujours continues to make waves!

After receiving attention in newspapers music magazines and music blogs in Belgium and the USA, our new album has now also been reviewed by the Dutch Moorsmagazine.

“Wan.de.len is a perfect example of their balance between precision and intuition, moving effortlessly from delicate melodies to moments of raw intensity.”

We’re happy to share a thoughtful review of Otto Kintet’s single Wan.de.len by Wax Vynil Records (UK)! As the proud label behind this release, we couldn’t agree more with their take !

If you haven’t heard it yet, this track is a beautiful showcase of Otto Kintet’s unique musical journey on their new album Wildernis, out now. Don’t miss their album release concert on 10/10 at Théâtre Marni! : https://theatremarni.com/Otto-Kint

« Met een accordeon in plaats van gitaren en een muur van blazers om de energie nog wat op te poken werden hete maatschappelijke hangijzers nooit uit de weg gegaan. Op Vertigo evenmin, zo bleek in een gezellig gevulde zaal met fans, die “zelfs vanuit Ieper - Respect!” op een woensdagavond naar Brussel waren afgezakt. “Het heeft bloed, zweet, tranen en een coronacrisis gekost,” zei de frontman voor hij met ‘Changement du plan’ het concert inzette: “On bougera ensemble ou on ne bougera pas!” »

” With an accordion instead of guitars and a wall of horns to crank up the energy some more, hot social issues were never avoided. Neither at Vertigo, it turned out in a comfortably filled hall of fans, who had “even descended to Brussels from Ypres - Respect!” on a Wednesday night. “It took blood, sweat, tears and a corona crisis,” the frontman said before kicking off the concert with ‘Changement du plan:’ ”On bougera ensemble ou on ne bougera pas!” 

Many thanks to music journalist Tom Peeters for the beautiful report on our concert in the AB - Ancienne Belgique for BRUZZ !

“Met ‘Wildernis’ levert het Brusselse jazzkwintet Otto Kintet een scherpe observatie van de (menselijke) natuur af. De nieuwe plaat weerspiegelt het traject dat de bandleden samen en individueel aflegden en de metamorfose van hun gelijknamige thuisbasis ‘Wildernis Strmbk’. 'Wildernis' is de eerste release van Otto Kintet op Choux de Bruxelles, label van het gelijknamige artiestencollectief waar Otto Kint deel van uitmaakt als bassist van 3'Ain en waar recent ook het nieuwe album Vertigo van Jaune Toujours verscheen.”

“With 'Wildernis,' Brussels-based jazz quintet Otto Kintet delivers a keen observation of (human) nature. The new record reflects the trajectory the band members traveled together and individually and the metamorphosis of their eponymous home base 'Wildernis Strmbk'. 'Wildernis' is Otto Kintet's first release on Choux de Bruxelles, label of the artist collective of the same name to which Otto Kint belongs as bassist of 3'Ain and where recently Jaune Toujours' new album Vertigo also appeared.”

Always an honour to be amongst Ian Anderson’s selection of the finest! As he puts it: “The world may be in a tangle but inspiring music keeps arriving. Top up your winter music allowance with the October Podwireless - Local Music From Out There, packed with particularly fine selection of new stuff from the wonderful world of folk, roots music and associated weirdos. No filler, all cherries!”

"Take Gogol Bordello, add some funky second line brass orchestration from NOLA, then overfill with ska music, and you’ve got Jaune Toujours. Hailing from Belgium, this music collective masterfully blends ska with jazz, jam band, punk, Balkan folk music, and big brass marching band. The danceable energy will keep your head bopping for the entire album."

Thank You Dane Jackson and Ska, Punk, and Other Junk !

Het was lang wachten, maar het Brusselse wereldensemble Jaune Toujours is terug met hun zevende studioalbum, en het is het absoluut waard! Al bijna 30 jaar verlichten ze elk feest waar ik DJ ben met hun unieke, onweerstaanbare sound. Dit is een doorgewinterde band die unapologetically zijn eigen ding doet, commerciële trends negeert en tegelijkertijd diep sociaal geëngageerd blijft. Ze pakken grote problemen aan zoals oorlogen, vluchtelingencrises, klimaatverandering en autoritaire politiek en verweven deze thema's in hun muziek met gedurfde creativiteit en zonder grenzen. Hun geluid is net zo meertalig als Brussel zelf, gedreven door groove, koperblazers en accordeon - wat zij “kick-ass roots in zijn meest energieke vorm” noemen!

"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!"

Thanks for this glowing review in Rootstime.be by Dani Heyvaert !
