Congolese Music on Muxtape
Fred over at ExtraExtra just posted a playlist of Congolese music that you can listen to right in your browser: http://fredr.muxtape.com/
This former post has an awesome video of Congolese kids grooving out to this stuff, plus some history of the music. I’ve embedded the video here, too:
Muxtape.com looks like a great idea, by the way. I seem to remember several similar companies choking on copyright lawyer effluent, back in the boom. I wonder how these guys are surviving.
