“By collecting all the music for ‘Jazz Cats volume 2’, I come to the conclusion that we are living in an era of very talented individuals and collectives. Even more so than 4 years ago. I have the impression that the Belgian jazz sound is more diverse, with more influences and more creativity. There was a time that jazz would be the starting sample to create a beat for rappers, today it is electronica, rap or afrobeat that influences our youth to create a sound or style that suits their vision of what jazz sounds like in 2022. So, once again it is with extreme pleasure that I present to you some of the best present and next generation of jazz cats this little country has to offer.”

2018’s ‘Lefto presents Jazz Cats’ included tracks from some of Belgium’s biggest hitters including Black Flower, STUFF., and Glass Museum who have all gone on to receive global acclaim. The album was given the accolade of ‘Album of the Week’ on Worldwide FM and also received further radio support from Jazz FM in addition to numerous glowing reviews.
