Quarrier Latin one would make more sense or Cindy. I really want another album like Loi, V12 or droit de veto.

Who is Lenny Bidens?

Guitarist, arranger, sound engineer and boss of recordlabel Publicomstudio. They produced Fabregas’s first solo album Amour Amour. He’s also the son of arranger Sec Bidens. He started very early with music following his dad in the studio, etc. His first album was Constat of Aimelia, he later worked with Papa Wemba and also collaborated on Werra’s albums Temoinage, Mayi Ya Sika, Malewa, Malewa Suite & Fin, played keyboard on Zenith 2008. He was also the brain of that fantastic acoustic sound of all the Zenith’s played in 2010 (Ferre, Fally & Werrason) mixing then also the dvd and cd-version of those concerts.

Yeah, the first song Sec put Lenny in charge of at a real young age was Bendoson's "Soucis" from the album Ya Bisso Moko (1998). Even that song was masterfully done

JP Kys is still the go to guy for génériques and local concerts, but there are a few guys in Kin who are good at rhumbas

Nice! I always wondered about the studios in Kinshasa Vs Paris in terms of quality and equipment. Is it the same? Some albums you can clearly tell if they were recorded in paris, or kinshasa.

I saw JP KYSS did do koffi's "KOFFI LIVE" which was a 10/10.

Before the mid-2000s or even earlier, you could tell the difference between Paris recordings and Kinshasa recordings. Because of an upgrade in sound quality, one may think that a top-notch Kin recording was done in Paris. There's still a difference in sound quality but compared to the 90s and earlier, which was blatant, it's subtle nowadays.

Could someone tell me what the actual mixing entails?
Title: Re: LENNY BIDENS MIXING KOFFI’S NEXT PROJECT
Post by: bigbodybeats on December 29, 2018, 04:15
simply he mixes all the individual tracks that koffi has recorded whether its vocals, instruments, effects, adlibs etc for a mastering process. In the mixing stage he fine tunes every track using equalization, balancing the levels of the tracks that have been recorded, “Panning” the tracks between speakers to create a stereo image, and Adding reverb, compression, and other effects to enhance his song.

Seems like a interesting but challenging job, I use Audacity for editing. Curious to hear how this album will sound.
