"... je wordt als luisteraar meteen meegesleept. Luister maar eens hoe je in het eerste nummer, Nachtschade, meteen door de trompet van Martini gepakt wordt. Zo begin je een album. En luister dan ook nog even hoe ze het afsluiten met Batich Ahmar, dan weet je dat je een pracht van een plaat in handen hebt."
‘... as a listener, you’re immediately swept away. Just listen to how, in the first track, ‘Nachtschade’, you’re instantly captivated by Martini’s trumpet. That’s how you start an album. And then just listen to how they close it off with ‘Batich Ahmar’ – that’s when you know you’ve got a real gem of an album in your hands.’

"...Het timbre van dit trio is redelijk uniek. Door hun wijze van musiceren spelen ze door middel van suggestie juist dát, wat níet hoorbaar is."
"...The timbre of this trio is quite unique. Through their style of playing, they use suggestion to convey precisely that which is not audible."
Thank you Mattie Poels and Music Frames for this heartwarming review of our new Album Unland.

3'Ain featured on the compilation ‘The Sound Of The Abbey’ with their track “Batich Ahmar”.
"Thirteen artists and ensembles created the same number of tracks, which were recorded within the abbey’s walls.
The abbey has inspired a wide range of musicians. The Rénélius Ensemble, a Roma ensemble from Leuven, the Naragonia Trio, 3'Ain, Andries Boone, Sandra Van der Gucht and Anouk Sanczuk… all interpreted the sounds, the buildings and the atmosphere in their own unique way."
Thank you to the Merode Festival for organising the compilation, and to Patrick Van Gestel and Da Music for reviewing it.

Very grateful for this first review of Unland by Björn Comhaire for Luminous Dash.
Luminous Dash has been such a supportive platform for independent music in Belgium over the years. Definitely worth following if you like discovering music slightly off the beaten path.

"...We horen drie muzikanten die een erg symbiotisch geluid produceren dat oosten, zuiden en westen met elkaar laat versmelten. Aangenaam luistervoer voor liefhebbers van jazz en folk die niet afgeschrikt worden door oosterse klanken, in een productie die helemaal af is."
"...We hear three musicians producing a highly symbiotic sound that blends the East, South and West. A delightful listening experience for lovers of jazz and folk who aren’t put off by Eastern sounds, in a production that is thoroughly polished."
Thank you Björn Comhaire and Luminous Dash for the warm review of our new Album Unland!
