Unclassics 119: Konono No 1 - Congotronics (Crammed Discs, 2004)

genre: bazombo trance music

There used to time when stupid white men admired Africans and their music for being "pure" and "authentic". They called it world music. Then came time when the Africans decided to fuck those jerks in asshole with iron pole. 00s was time when the west discovered that the musicians in Africa are no longer nice, but making rebellious, radical and agressive music. Konono No 1 from Congo play something called bazombo trance music and it is the most 'out there' music we heard during last decade - something like Ikeda or Raster Noton playd acoustically. This even at times sounds like warriors calling to arms - oh yeah, they are coming...
