about

Ngwaka Son Systéme - Music for right here right now straight from the megacity of Kinshasa, DRC. Follow at www.instagram.com/ngwakasonsysteme/

NSS is led by musicians Love Lokombe and Bom’s Bomolo, having previously founded KOKOKO. This new project continues the contemporary Congolese tradition of reinventing electronic music by shaping and crafting music instruments made of household objects.

Iboto Ngenge means “power struggle” or “seizing the opportunity” but while words can only be roughly translated, the music reaches listeners unambiguously: A potent mixture of techno, rumba, soukous, zagué and dancehall with the unique “Kinoise” brand – the city that never stops innovating in the music landscape worldwide.

As a means to continue strengthening the links between Africa and Latin America, Eck Echo has tasked Colombian dub engineer Diego Gomez (Dub de Gaita) with the analog mixing of the stems, originally recorded by Levy David at Timbela Ba Studio in Kinshasa. With the aim to bring the lexicon of shared Colombian and Congolese music into the next chapter, we proudly present to the world the magnificent music of Ngwaka Son Systéme.
