ADRIAN BLAINE
Vocals / Guitar
While recording his first Afrikaans hit "Jy's Myne" a couple of years ago, he brought a whole new "bang" into Afrikaans music.
He chose to record the album at LAMT Productions in Pretoria with International producer,
Sheron Sibert. Reason being, there is a lot of Afrikaans music on the market and they wanted to do something new.
Honestly, they don't regret it for one second, as you can hear the difference in the production.
It’s not that local sound isn’t lekker, but they wanted a more international vibe and I think they nailed it!
