Description: | Congotronics International - a supergroup comprised of Konono Nº1, Kasai Allstars,
Deerhoof, Juana Molina, Wildbirds & Peacedrums, and Skeletons?? Matthew
Mehlan??have announced their epic collaborative new album, Where??s The One?,
will be released on April 29th, 2022, on Crammed Discs. Eleven years lovingly in the
making, Where??s The One? gathers 19 musicians from across four continents,
working together to create a new musical language that combines the traditional
music of the Congolese artists with the various experimental rock styles of their
admirers based in Europe and the Western Hemisphere. Its 21 electrifying songs
consist of live concert recordings and studio tracks produced in the years before,
during, and after their Congotronics vs. Rockers tour. The 2011 tour brought these
acts together for the first time??all in all, ten lead vocalists, five guitarists, three
likembe players, five percussionists, two bass players (including Crammed Discs??
Vincent Kenis, the co-founder of Kasai Allstars and curator/producer of
the Congotronics series), and three drummers??for performances at 16 major
festivals and venues in ten countries.
Where??s The One???s dynamic first two singles out today preview all sides of the
recording: the triumphant live cut ??Banza Banza,? which showcases Kasai Allstars??
powerhouse lead vocalist Kabongo Tshisense, and the folk-inflected studio
instrumental ??Beyond The 7th Bend,? written and performed by Kasai Allstars??
Tshisense and Mopero Mupemba, alongside Matt Mehlan and Juana Molina, which
intermingles Western & African guitars and a Congolese thumb piano. - Released as a Digipak. |
