We are happy to announce the first in an occasional series of fully licensed 12" releases on Autonomous Africa exploring the influence of music from Africa across the globe.

The first release comes from Colombia's Wganda Kenya with three tracks recorded in the mid 70s. The Caribbean coast of Colombia has a long relationship with Africa stretching back hundreds of years. Strong trading links and migration from West Africa to Colombia led to a distinct African influence on the music in cities such as Cartagena and the local music (cumbia and champeta) absorbed these influences. This was  particularly notable in the 70s as records by Fela Kuti amongst others arrived in Colombia. One of the leading practitioners of this Afro Sound were the mighty Wganda Kenya who were huge there in the 70s and 80s and whose music is still highly regarded to this day. 

While their music has appeared on compilations, there hasn't been a big fat 12" vinyl release since Island Records offshoot, Mango put "Shakalode" out as a 12" way back in 1989.

"Shakalode" on the A side is a powerful reworking of the Fela Kuti classic "Shakara" which was much covered in Colombia in the mid 1970s. It's a transcendental Afro Colombian funk bomb.

On the other side are two other Wganda Kenya gems; the call and response percussive and organ grooving "Pim Pom" and the more traditional Colombian cumbia singalong anthem "La Botellita".

Originally this was going to be a 2 x 12" featuring some other Wganda Kenya magic but sadly the masters to many of their tracks have been lost. There are plans to put out a second 12" of reworkings of these tracks aimed at djs who won't play records unless they can mix them, but of course, these 40 year old tracks will still rock any open minded dancefloor just as they are.

All proceeds will once again go to the Mtandika mission in Tanzania - www.actioninafrica.org/about-mtandika.php

Release date April 2015. Distributed by Above Board.

Autonomous Africa is a collaborative project run by JD Twitch, Midland and Auntie Flo.

Autonomous Africa Vintage  01 - Wganda Kenya - Afro Colombia 12" EP (sampler)

a) "Mr. Malonga" by Tabu Lay Rochereau from 'Evvi Presente "Le Seigneur" Rochereau: Maze'
b) "Makina Loka" by Orchestre Makina Loka from 'Edition Veve 1969 - 1978'
c) "Balobaka Ye Mbongo Mingi" by Verckys from 'Edition Veve 1972-1978'
d) "Souvenir Mpoli" by Empire Bakuba from 'Verckys présente L'Empire Bakuba de Pepa Kallé, Dilu Dilumona et Papy Tex'

The man known as Verckys is one of the most colourful characters in Congolese music, and though perhaps not as famous internationally as some of his associates, he has made an outsized impact on his country’s music and music business.  

He was born Georges Kiamuangana in Kisantu, the Belgian Congo, in 1944. His well-to-do father sent him to Roman Catholic schools, and also the church of a Protestant sect where he first displayed his musical aptitude. Still a teenager, he left home to pursue a musical career in Léopoldville (Kinshasa).

As a saxophonist, Kiamuangana was strongly influenced by the robust, funky sound of the American King Curtis, whose name he heard as “Vurkis”. He soon caught the attention of bandleader Dewayon and then Franco, who wooed Verckys away to play in OK Jazz, the top band in the land.  

In addition to being a talented all-round musician, Verckys was a showman whose stage antics won him fans of his own and in 1968 he started his record company, Éditions Vévé, persuading Youlou Mabiala and several other members of OK Jazz to record for him. When Franco found out he fired the lot but then relented in consideration of 40% of the new company’s earnings. Verckys left OK Jazz and formed Orchestre Vévé.

Verckys modelled Orchestre Vévé on the band he’d just quit and trained its members to achieve that big, compelling sound with fewer musicians. He was the featured soloist but did not ignore his fellow musicians and in the late ‘60s and early ‘70s this band released dozens of singles. One of its most acclaimed was Nakomitunaka (“I ask myself”), an uncharacteristically pensive song that ponders questions about race, nationality and religion.

Orchestre Vévé wasn’t his only band, and as one of the savviest talent scouts and entrepreneurs in the business, he discovered or put together several of the best Second Generation groups: Les Grands Maquisards (with Ntesa Dalienst and Dizzy Mandjeku), Bella Bella (led by the brothers Émile and Vangu Soki), Lipua Lipua (with Nyboma Mwan’dido and Daly Kimoko) and Empire Bakuba (Pépé Kallé on the very large throne).  

Verckys continued to play, but increasingly his focus was on producing records and expanding his business. The studio he built in Kinshasa in 1972 was used by artists other than his, and his six-storey entertainment complex, Vévé Centre, erected in the heart of the Matongé nightlife district in 1978, presented Zaiko Langa Langa as well as rising stars such as Koffi Olomide. Verckys was as important to the bustling Congolese/Zairean music industry as Tabu Ley Rochereau and Franco and in fact he succeeded Franco as president of the Zairean musicians’ union, and produced Tabu Ley’s first records with Mbilia Bel.

Verckys continued apace in the 1980s, producing bestselling albums by Victoria Eleison and Anti-Choc and creating Langa Langa Stars, but there was little he could do to stem the flood of bootleg cassettes that was destroying record industries throughout Africa.  Many of the artists he had worked with moved to Europe, but he maintained his base in Kinshasa, even as the Zairean economy slowly collapsed and the country slid into civil war.    

A survivor as well as a colourful character, Verckys still lives in Kinshasa and remains involved in the Congolese music business. His choice of Sterns Music to issue his exceedingly important digital catalogue is a great honour. 

The most comprehensive reissue of the Éditions Vévé catalogue yet undertaken:

10 singles featuring their original covers
15 albums with original covers and sequence
6 compilation albums including rare tracks
