For one whose work has only popped on here once, Ruhan Du Toit leaves us pretty chuffed with this compilation. Although the guest list is lean, with only Bok van Blerk, Steve Hofmeyr, Bobby van Jaarsveld, Jay and Monique Steyn on the tracklist, “Monumentaal” is yet a work of vivacious appeal. See full tracklist below:

It begins with an eponymous track and ends with the memorable”Hartseer.” Throughout your listening you have a sense of being taken through a beautiful world, a world of great sonic warmth. The sound will speak to you as much as the messages.
“Afrikaans” might not be the in-thing in South African music right now, however, we the like of Ruhan Du Toit still holding the mic, we are confident the prospects of the genre one day snapping the attention of Mzansi is pretty high.
