Journal Review, USA
"Georg Levin is what happens when God decides to give a white man soul"

Intro, Germany
"An elixir that is professionally realised and that is in need today. Blessed with intensity!"

Debug, Germany
"Here, soul really remains soul. Levin has a vision shining through every song."

Flavorpill, USA
"Levin's debut succeeds where many fail. 'Can't Hold Back' unites both club kids and soul lovers with a sound collecting everything from P-Funk and Prince to Dwele, Maxwell, electronica, and beyond... Face it: It's the soul music of the future."

Philadelphia Weekly, USA
"Impressively jaw-dropping. Georg Levin sounds like the love child Steely Dan's Donald Fagen and Walter Becker never had - and I mean that with the utmost sincerity."

IDJ, UK
"The whole album is a superbly-crafted journey through breezy soul. And a very good album is it too."

Uncle Sally's, Germany
"Soul music like you have never heard coming out of Germany: Funky and elegant, groovy and smooth.... gives the listener deep comfort by letting him/her melt away while waiting for the next D'Angelo album."

Dancemusicabout, USA
"Levin delivers a stylish and mature collection that melts R&B into electronica, and balances commercial appeal with enough depth for the heads."

Deephouse Network, USA
"A varied, lively mix of a multitude of styles all masterfully crafted together in an album that deserves your immediate attention whatever your musical preference or bias."

Montreal Mirror, Canada
"Can't Hold Back excels in soul swells and subtle dancefloor nuance, showcasing Levin's impressive production and arrangement skills."

San Francisco Examiner, USA
"Jazzanova's inhouse, blue-eyed soul-man pays respect to everyone from Earth, Wind and Fire and Prince to Steely Dan and Michael Franks with his jazzy keyboards, sexy basslines, and surprisingly perfect pitch."

Jazzthetik, Germany
"Reduced to the essence, pleasantly organic with a dash of understatement."
