Our hero, Jo Tongo (born Joseph Ekambi Tongo Mpondo) was born and raised in Douala  Cameroon.  In 1964 he headed off to Paris to begin Pharmaceutical studies.   Somewhere along the way the music in his soul eventually won out and he embarked on a life of music. In 1968 his first single “Dig It Babe” released under his Jojo L'Explosif alias.  A few more singles followed, as did regular appearances, contributions and productions with (fellow Camerounian) Manu Dibango, Tala AM, Manfred Ebanda and others throughout the 70s.

In 1977 Jo’s the stars in Jo’s timeline all aligned when he produced and recorded his debut self titled “Jo Tongo” for the Fiesta label.  Recorded in both French and his native Duala language, it is a perfect example of 70s funk meeting afrobeat with African folk styles and flavors.  Produced with legendary Parisian funk / disco / afro soundman Slim Pezin the album oozes style, quality, fine musicianship and is full of instantly memorable songs.

The album opens up with stunningly catchy Jangolo.  It’s a prefect introduction to Jo’s awesomely funky bass guitar.  Slim adds layers of percussive “jangly” guitar and the track is underpinned by African drums, funky stabs and 70s nascent synthesiser string machines. Tracks such as a “Kiele” and “Boso Bongo” highlight Jos Cameroonian roots. While dancefloor stompers such as “Piani” and “A’Muna” sounds more relavent and current today than possibly they did in 1977.  The album also includes plenty of swagger with the boogie-style afro swingers “Ewande” and “Muasa Loko”.   

 The Jangolo track was a highlight of the recent Africa Seven debut release “African Airways Volume 1: (Funk Connection 1972-1979). To Follow that up Africa Seven are proud to repress the debut Jo Tongo album in its full glory.

Jo now spends his time between Paris and New York.  He is a social media and Internet wizard (buzz him up!) and is currently working on new material.

Nickodemus is a traveler at heart—a connector of worlds, scenes, and people since the mid-90s. Over his extensive career as a touring DJ and producer, including 5 albums and canonical tunes like “My Swing es Tropical” and “Cleopatra in New York”, he’s helped pave the way for an inimitable mix of global fusion and the heavy beats we yearn for in the club. His music has long thrived on the close relationships and mutual respect of friends he’s built across the continents, felt through the worldly potions he cooks up in the studio, and spanning electronic sounds rooted in Latin, African, and Eastern instrumentation. His latest album, A Long Engagement, serves as a culmination of the inspirations he’s absorbed and remains rooted in his life as native New Yorker and the city’s nostalgic energy. 

Nickodemus’ sound is often focused on the connective tissue of his many live collaborations and the electronic solitude of his studio (or record-filled bubble, as he calls it). Through his much-loved label Wonderwheel Recordings, he’s not only regularly releasing some of the most soul-shaking, eclectic sounds in the biz, but focusing deeply on artist development and creating long-lasting moments that live on far longer than their track length. The music you hear in his releases are filled with expression, reflection, and care; they’re both open-minded and deeply focused, a rarity at time in today’s overcrowded music industry. 

As a remixer, he’s also lent his “Remix Machine” to a wide range of artists including pioneers like Bob Marley and Nina Simone, as well as other like minded genre-welders like Thievery Corporation, Quantic, and Mr. Scruff. Throughout his career he’s also carved an important niche in the live music scene with his beloved Turntables on the Hudson parties, that have popped up everywhere from New York to Cairo.  
 
Currently on tour around Europe & USA, his latest album "Soul and Science" is another portrait into the importance of shared ideas and the dialogue artists can share when they look past language or place of birth. It’s another bass-heavy global party and we’re all invited.
