Significant Changes

As a platform for further discussion and as a funky, hip shaking, unifying electronic album, Significant Changes is a triumph.

Significant Changes is a superb album which balances a concern for the planet with a shameless urge to have fun, all representing a sincere, unconquerable love of life.

‘Significant Changes’ is at once both ludicrously fun and inquisitive, knowing exactly when to fuse Jayda G’s learnings and passions into music that’s, quite clearly, full of heart and wisdom.

While her close friend Alexa Dash belts out an undeniable anthem as lead singer on Leave Room 2 Breathe, it’s Jayda G’s own vocal work that ultimately unites Significant Changes, accenting hooks with fizzy ad-libs, steering tunes with sprawling falsettos and resounding in the deep.

The Canadian DJ, producer, and environmental toxicologist bridges worlds on her debut album, weaving orcas’ songs and conservationist messages into deep-diving tracks aimed at inclusive dancefloors.

The untreated vocals, the orchestration, the amount of space in the mix and loose-feeling drums give Significant Changes a retro flavour that echoes classic disco labels like West End Records and Salsoul. (Think Taana Gardner's "Heartbeat.") There's something in it for old-school disco heads and young Jayda acolytes alike.
