'Soldier Ascension' has been made in Angola, where Djeff is a DJ, producer and TV presenter, but this is not an Angolan album. It's bigger and bolder than that, not defined or confined by national borders, and too 21st century in style and execution to be tarred with the 'World Music' brush.
Rather this is an album of beautiful, sophisticated, cosmopolitan tracks that could loosely be described as Afro-house while effortlessly incorporating elements of so many different musical styles that Djeff has heard and been inspired by growing up in Portugal and Angola, and on his travels as a DJ.

From the beautiful balladry of 'One Night' to the raucous, hi-life flavoured hedonism of 'Mutakala' and from the gorgeous Portuguese vocals on 'Cuza Di Terra' and 'Esse Mambo' to the pounding beats and horns of 'Celebration', which was made with the house dancers of New York in mind, 'Soldier Ascension' is a spectacular collection.
