Taking Konono No. 1’s emergent punk aesthetic and making the likembe power more easily digestable for the urban youth is actually something we’d rather be opposing but CongopunQ has done it right.

Starts off with ambient sounds by Pepe Bradock and a spoken horror sketch by Boris Karloff on top of it, a Japanese koto piece by Chieko Mori, and then a short trip through Africa.

* A hard to find cassette rip of the Bulgarian virtuoso Ivo Papasov on Dalston Oxfam Shop.
* a ripping dnb track off label boss Iaka’s release on Plain Audio netlabel which specialize in Dnb & Electronica.
