Exclusive video preview of «Congotronics 2 - Buzz'n'Rumble In The Urb'n'Jungle»

The KONONO N°1 album (Congotronics 1) has started giving worldwide exposure to the strange and spectacular electro-traditional mixtures which are being concocted in the suburbs of Kinshasa, Congo. World music, electronica and avant-rock aficionados have been equally amazed by this otherworldly music, which has driven the international press to come up with extremely surprising comparisons (from Can and Krautrock to Jimi Hendrix, Lee Perry and proto-techno !...).


Hot on the footsteps of Congotronics 1, here comes a fresh selection of even more amazing sounds, courtesy of no less than seven electro-traditional bands from Kinshasa, which have all been especially recorded and produced by Crammed’s Vincent Kenis

Included here are excerpts of videos by the following bands :

Basokin

Sobanza Mimanisa

Masanka Sankayi
