Our Take

As I popped in the latest offering from Rob van de Wouw, entitled Neon, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement in the air. With his reputation as one of the most innovative trumpeters in the game, I knew I was in for a wild ride.

The album opens with the track "Luminous," and right from the get-go, it's clear that van de Wouw is not holding back. The combination of funky beats, soulful melodies, and electrifying horn solos is pure magic.

As I listened on, tracks like "Electric Dreams" and "Neon Nights" showcased van de Wouw's ability to seamlessly blend genres, from jazz to funk to electronic music. Each song felt like a musical journey, with unexpected twists and turns that kept me on the edge of my seat.

But the real standout moment came in the form of "Glow," a beautiful ballad that had me reaching for the tissues. Van de Wouw's tender, emotive playing tugged at my heartstrings in a way that few musicians can.

Overall, Neon is a triumph for Rob van de Wouw. With his fearless experimentation and unparalleled skill on the trumpet, he has created a masterpiece that will surely stand the test of time. Bravo, Rob, bravo.
