Jeangu Macrooy's debut album 'High On You', that I produced, has received some great press reviews! :) Also, the album is Radio 1 'CD of the week' this week! Check out some of the press quotes below:
Telegraaf, April 15th 2017: 'An introductory record full of soul, but also funk, roots, ragtime, reggae and pop. With joy and sorrow. Large and sweeping here, small and intriguing there. Your mouth will drop with surprise and admiration. What a way to start your career!'
Platomania, April 2017: 'In 2014 Jeangu left Surinam for the Netherlands, a decision that was quickly rewarded with a record deal with Unexpected Records, Perquisite's label. The latter was also responsible for the production of the first EP and this new debut album, adding a significant amount to Jeangu's sound, that sprung from a singer-songwriter tradition.'
Giel Beelen, 3FM, April 23rd: 'I dare to state that this is the release of the year.'
Algemeen Dagblad, April 7th 2017:'High On You' might be the best Dutch debut record of 2017.' 4 OUT OF 5
