It was a rainy summer evening and we decided to write a song together about the beautiful atmosphere that can exist in your relationships with others,\u201d<\/em> he shares. <em>\u201cThe image of a kite came up and suited the song perfectly. Even if a kite flies high up in the air, it is still connected to the person holding the string on the ground. It is symbolic of the freedom and adventure that can exits within a relationship.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both songs are available on his latest album, <em>Someraarde<\/em> , and follows in the exciting footsteps of previous releases, including <em>Arende<\/em> , <em>Sterrenet<\/em> , <em>Voshaarnooi<\/em> , <em>Vir Altyd<\/em> , <em>Die W\u00eareld Binne My<\/em> and more, which have all been very well received.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Joshua na die Re\u00ebn<\/strong> , a.k.a. Jacques de Villiers, shot to fame in 2014 with his self-titled debut album that won numerous awards. Since then, he has not only released several big radio hits, but also shared the stage with some of the country\u2019s biggest stars. He was also part of the music project, Musiek Soos Grond , in 2019 with his friends and fellow musicians Lizandra Winter, Len Muller, Kaleidoskoop, Leon Gropp and Liani Reynolds. In 2021 he also released a beautiful duet with Simon\u00e9 Roets, called <em>Ongerep<\/em> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When is not on stage, he enjoys exercising, being a dad and spending time outdoors. The past two years have taught him not to plan too far in advance, but to rather focus on making the best of each opportunity that comes his way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although it is uncommon to release two singles simultaneously, the musician wanted listeners to experience his two favourite singles at the same time. <em>\u201cThey are not necessarily radio hits, but that has never been my main objective. I really want to expose listeners to all aspects of my music,\u201d<\/em> he concludes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>WANDEL<\/strong><\/em> and <em><strong>VLIE\u00cbRS <\/strong><\/em>are both available on his album, <em>Someraarde<\/em> here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/go.raindust.co\/store\/category\/music-downloads\/sub\/joshua-na-die-reen?r=jdv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/go.raindust.co\/store\/category\/music-downloads\/sub\/joshua-na-die-reen?r=jdv<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/music.apple.com\/us\/album\/someraarde\/1459697785\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/music.apple.com\/us\/album\/someraarde\/1459697785<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/album\/1I1MRFje5aYnJBiyhl8gFt\">https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/album\/1I1MRFje5aYnJBiyhl8gFt<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joshua na die Re\u00ebn , the multi-acclaimed musician who has just won two Afri-Indie music awards ( Best Male Artist and Best Afrikaans Songwriter ), has mastered the art of captivating listeners with his music .
