Music/Radio / Re: Thread For Lovers Of Congolese Music (Rumba & Soukous) by Sweetguy25: 9:36am On Oct 14, 2018 |
Away from Kanda Bongo man for a minute and unto Diblo Dibala. Diblo was the number one Soukous guitarist in the 80s. He was the lead guitarist for Kanda Bongo man's first four albums. If you listen to Kanda Bongo man's song, you will often hear him call out Diblo's name. Anyway, Diblo left Kanda and formed his own Soukous group with Aulus Mabele called Loketo in 1987 or there about. They produced and excellent album called Super Soukous. Here is a hit track from the album Diblo and Loketo ~ Super K. 1988 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfEca4B6qlQ 1 Like |

Kanda Bongo released so many great songs in 80s, thanks to excellent wizardry from Diblo Dibala his guitarist. It was impossible to not at least nod your head after listening to Diblo's guitar. Another hit song from Kanda Bongo's first album. Kanda Bongo ~ Mazina. 1981 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ir2iA8hUSk |

More 80s soukous This time from Kanda Bongo man. Kanda is one of the most famous African musicians. He's one of the pioneers of soukous music. Here is his hit track called Iyole from his first album. This is one of the first soukous songs and it has a funny story behind it. The song was originally recorded as a slow rumba music and Kanda was hoping it would be released that way but unknown to him, the sound engineer and studio, shortened it and increased the tempo. When Kanda heard it, he and Diblo were angry but the song went on to be massive hit and that was how Kanda Bongo became a Soukous musician. Enjoy. Iyole from Kanda Bongo man, solo guitar by Diblo Dibala. 1981 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=183dLzVFf9Q |

Two other lovely songs from the Moyibi album by Nyboma and Pepe Kalle Likambo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbJqt_V4jLU And Amour Perdu https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1aFHHkLj-U0 This album was a masterpiece. It was produced in 1988 I think. |

The 80s was a great year for Soukous and Rumba. It was the year Parisian soukous took over the scene. Guitarists like Diblo, Dally, Rigo Star, Lokassa, Bopol and Syran came into limelight. One of the best songs from one the greatest albums of the 80s: Nina by Nyboma and Pepe Kalle, from the album Moyibi. Guitars are by Dally Kimoko, Lokassa Ya'Mbongo and Miguel Yamba. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nzeiYGdWmk |

Soukous is like a faster version of Rumba. The lead gitar is more prominent and important in Soukous than in Rumba. Most soukous songs (even rumba) have something called a sebene, a part of the song where the lead guitarist goes on a roll and displays his guitar skills. A classic example of soukous https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3H4qNT4HE2E |

Let me differentiate between Rumba and Soukous. Rumba is slower than Soukous. Its Like a mixture of R&B and Jazz. There's no perfect way to explain than give examples. This is Rumba https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHlZ2WGct4g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gqvi0zdN-tM Rumba has slower rhythms and tempo and it relies heavily on rhythm guitar. |

The song that really got me interested in Soukous music were these two songs by Jean Baron. I heard it from my room mates phone and the guitars struck me. I started looking for the artist. It took me over 1 year find out the artiste. 1. Lutter Lutter by Jean Baron https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDz8VQUe2AU 2. Pantalon Mariba by jean baron https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EISk3AlWUtE The lead guitars were from the one and only Dally Kimoko. 1 Like |

Like most Nigerians, the first time I heard any soukous music was when Awilo Longomba released his Coupe Bibamba album in 1998. Nigerians wrongly called it makossa and most people thought Awilo was from Cameroon. The album was good and this was the most popular song in the album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Mlt5RVwbPY |

The Congo or Zaire as it was previously called used to have the best musicians and music in Africa. They had the best guitarists, the best arrangers and producers, and the best vocalists. Whenever these musical geniuses come together, they fuse harmonic, symphonic and rhythmic tunes to create music that touches the spirit. The most known genres are Rhumba first and later Soukous and Kwassa Kwassa. Since 2012, I started listening to soukous music and I have never looked back. I don't understand a word of what these musicians say but I don't care. Are there people who love or are addicted (like me) to Congolese music? Come in and show yourself. By the way, if you're a guitarist, you will love this thread. 1 Like |
