What makes Reyer unique?
Reyer links two worlds that rarely meet: congregational worship in Dutch, with songs that churches take up, and a producer's work shaped by dance and electronic music. He plays keys and does the programming on his own recordings, and he invites voices such as Eline Bakker, Kees Kraayenoord or Elvis E. Several of his songs also circulate in English, like Jezus Overwinnaar, which became Jesus Victorious.
