Our Take

Jacob Collier teams up with the Metropole Orkest and conductor Jules Buckley for a mind-bending journey through the multifaceted world of Djessein British English. This album is a sonic kaleidoscope, blending elements of jazz, soul, funk, and electronic music into a vibrant tapestry of sound.

Collier's virtuosic talent shines through on every track, with his impeccable vocal harmonies and inventive arrangements pushing the boundaries of what is possible in modern music. The Metropole Orkest provides the perfect backdrop for Collier's experiments, adding depth and richness to each composition.

Buckley's masterful conducting brings a sense of unity to the album, guiding the performers through complex rhythms and harmonies with ease. The result is a seamless fusion of traditional orchestral sounds and contemporary electronic production, creating a sound that is both timeless and cutting-edge.

Standout tracks include the hypnotic "Time Alone With You" and the energetic "Sleeping on My Dreams," both of which showcase Collier's unparalleled musicianship and creativity. Overall, Djessein British English is a dazzling display of musical talent and innovation, solidifying Jacob Collier's status as one of the most exciting artists in the industry today.
