We don't speak Hungarian, so we don't know what it actually says, but we thìnk it's a rather positive review of Europeana, Jaune Toujours' new album.
For those of you who do understand the language, you can read the whole article on the website of Ekultura.hu
And maybe tell us about it ...

It is raucous and brassy, pumped with energy and variety, a play-it-loud party album that distils all manner of influences into its grooves

Tim Cumming from Songlines gave Europeana 3 stars and wrote an excelent review.

Of course it's political, responsive to the mess we face now. But like all the best political music, it's also danceable, poetic and brimming with wit

Jamie Renton from fRoots got his hands on a copy of the brand new Jaune Toujours album Europeana and wrote an amazing review. But there is more!

Europeana was also featured in the fRoots favorite albums playlist and compilation cd!

Und Die Musik ist so bunt wie der Markt hinter dem Gare du Midi: arabische Elemente (H'bibi) treffen auf BalkanBläser, die sich mit fetten Off-Beats prügeln (Ska-Man) und auch ihre Stadt erklären sie dem Hörer gern nochmal: "Funky Brussels" kocht, sobald Jaune Toujour aufspielen. "Save Le Monde" - "Alles Normaal"

Karsten Zimalla from the German music magazine Westzeit wrote the following 4 star review (in German) for Europeana:

Die MultiKulti-(diese Beschreibung ist (m.E.völlig zu unrecht) zwar in Verruf geraten, hier aber ausdrücklich positiv gemeint!)Truppe aus Brüssel hat uns ganz schön warten lassen. Denn wenn wir mal die "20sth"-Geburtstagskompilation außer Acht lassen, ist das letzte Album der SoulSkaWorldDubRockJazzPunker schon 5 Jahre alt und die letzte richtige Dland-Tour war 2014. Bevor nun die Entzugserscheinungen zu mächtig werden, gibt es endlich Nachschub. Der ist wie gehabt politisch bewusst - neben dem wilden Stil- und Sprachgemisch, das in sich ja schon ein klares Statement darstellt (mit Flämisch und Französisch auf einer Platte in Belgien ganz besonders!), sowie dem Bekenntnis zur Völkerverständigung im Plattennamen stellen die Kollegen auch eines klar: "Refugees Welcome". Und Die Musik ist so bunt wie der Markt hinter dem Gare du Midi: arabische Elemente (H'bibi) treffen auf BalkanBläser, die sich mit fetten Off-Beats prügeln (Ska-Man) und auch ihre Stadt erklären sie dem Hörer gern nochmal: "Funky Brussels" kocht, sobald Jaune Toujour aufspielen. "Save Le Monde" - "Alles Normaal"!

With a party band such as this, there’s clearly a lot more going on in Brussels than EU legislation and the Brexit negotiations.

Imagine us jumping up and down for joy with the first UK review of Europeana by Simon Broughton in the London Evening Standard ‼️
