The story of the record

Bundele put Awilo Longomba back in front of a wide audience in 2014 with a single built on everything his fans recognise: rolling percussion, bright guitar and a chorus made for crowds.

The video, shot in London, placed him in a diaspora setting — a reminder that his audience had long since spread from Kinshasa to European and African cities alike.

It is one of the most direct entry points into his later work: three decades of experience compressed into a single dance record.
