Ambiance Congo: March 22, 2015

WELCOME!
You are always welcome to listen to Ambiance Congo.
Today, I seem have chosen a lot of music from the late 1980s to early 2000s.
Sitting here in the middle of the night with my mansanga, listening to and enjoying  the program for the first time
I don't get to hear the shows as I present them. It's all ad lib and I'm constantly queuing up the next song. Even when I've planned something, I get inspired by the sheer volume and variety of Congolese music and the programs never proceed as planned.
But this a good one, I think. I hope that you'll agree and leave a comment or request.

 You are invited to listen to this program and to many other editions at

Ambiance Congo: March 8, 2015

WELCOME!
Thanks to everyone who was anticipating this post and who asked about it.
It was a very busy week for me and I just could not get to this. I also had some issues with sound quality which have been remedied for the zip file but not yet at Radi4all.
But here it is!
I started off the program with a salute to the ladies on International Women's Day and then jumped around quite a bit.
As usual, when I have a big box of LPs and CDs with me in the studio, I get distracted by all the great opportunities to take the music in another direction and there's a lot of that reflected in this edition of Ambiance Congo.
I hope that you will enjoy!

Ambiance Congo: February 22, 2015

Welcome!
This program starts off with a GREAT track sung by the late Pompon Kuleta along with the group Afri-Jazz.
I could have played the song three or four times, but moved on to other music instead.
I wanted to play just rumba odemba, but got into other genres as well...and had a wonderful time.
I hope you'll enjoy this edition of Ambiance Congo.

Ambiance Congo: February 8, 2015

WELCOME!
Whether you are a new listener or an old friend returning, welcome to this radio program of Congolese music. A mix for you today of old and new, classic and innovative. We start with a song by the great Bana OK followed by a song, featuring a couple of the same singers, from a decade or two earlier by Franco & le TP OK Jazz.
I had an idea of where to go form there when I came to the station, but that changed after the third song and it became totally free form fun. I hope that you will enjoy, send you comments and requests.
