Pentagone (1996)
I dont find myself to be a big fan of their album catalogue, much bigger fan of their live performances of that time but curious to know what are you guys favorites.

Kin e Bouger - The sound, the sound, the sound… I remember hearing it for thirst time and being blown away like never before. The album was light years ahead in terms of acoustics. The album should’ve been longer and Makaba deserves a lifetime time achievement award for his work on Solo, Rhythm, Synthesizer, Mixing, instrument tuning, composing, and getting Werra to actually sing properly ;D ;D.
A deadlock tie between Pentagone (1996) & Les Anges Adorables 1-2 (My placement has kept changing depending on my mood)
Kala Yi Boeing (1993)
Bouger Bouger (1988)
Plein Feux (The one meh 4x4 album for me, Kongulu’s blocking didn’t help either)

@Matebu
My list is about the same as yours, but Kala Yi Boeing slightly edges Kin E Bouger out of the lead, while Pentagone steals third from Plein Feux. Alain Makaba was very much the brains behind the lush Wenge sound.

Completely in agreement with the bro @Matebu, until today Kin e Bouger remains one of the albums with an acoustic quality out of the ordinary (with Academia's Sanction), if all the Congolese albums could have this quality... Our music puts forward just about every category of instrument, it deserves to be recorded with an acoustic quality such as Kin e bouger
For my part, I would say:
1. Anges Adorables vol. 2 (it's Wenge's album where bass is the most powerful and best played and the sebenes leave me speechless, all the voices are pleasant, the battery do not talk about it, everything is concordant, all the voices are pleasant)
2. Kala-yi-boeing (all sebenes are successful...)
3. Kin e bouger (Kaskin's sebene ... amazing)
4. Pentagone / Anges Adorables vol. 1 (Pentagone, No comment Schengen, Coco madimba, Filandu, La vérité... and Hi ho ha, La vie, Douglas Ilumbe and La tempête du désert are the sounds that I recommend you the most between this two albums)
5. Bouger bouger (apart from Mulolo, I do not really like other sounds)
6. Pleins feux (apart from Tchatcho Mbala from Werrason, the rest do not captivate me)

Their separation is so regrettable, they complement each other as well
