Title: STUDIO UPDATE WENGE BCBG AND WENGE MAISON MERE
Post by: archos on July 26, 2013, 13:46
most of the long awaited albums for this year have been released
only remain fleche india ingeta,adamu na eva,maitre d'école of papa wemba and balle de match but ya victoire
since i am much closer to clan wenge than any other group,i will give update on fleche ingeta and balle de match
 - FLECHE INGETA
as it stands, the majority of the work by musicians is done, now its werra doing his singing parts,mabanga and some clips
 dont know the definite number of songs but like almost all albums recently released its between 10 and 20
kakol got 3 songs,heritier two,the rest of those who were given opportunity got one(adt yanki mpuy,gemerose,deplick,miel de son,japonais,bouton,capuccino,ali mbonda...) and of course the leader werrason himself
there are like in most current albums much more rumbas than sebene,it would even had been worse if werra did not decide lately to add two sebene songs
as for generiques,like its known atalaku prince has returned and he has brought with him a complete generique of 7 minutes he has proposed to werra but i dont think werra will choose it since diego cao,lobeso and brandon avatar were already working on generiques
-BALLE DE MATCH
few months ago,the list of those of who were given songs was chai ngenge,didi kalombo,abel de charme,maitre ficarré,zulema,atshouda,roger ngandu,patou solo,jeremy kitubu and seguin maniata plus jb's songs but in the meantime jb decided to give songs to jules kibens,nono fudji,mignon abraham,cellulaire yankobo,gentamycine,zoulou mbonda,nono fudji ,jdl,sunda bass and rio de janeiro
 the fact many musicians were recently given songs means studio session are taking more time but well over half of the job is done like in the case of maison mere most of the remaining work is for the leader
 the situation about chai ngenge and sunda bass could have an influence aswell on the length of the sessions
like with maison mere, much much more rumbas than sebene songs
as for the generique,they already did one main generique of 12 minutes and planned two other generiques but the main generique is abandoned and replace by a shorter generique of 6-7 minutes of more recent animations
also for the first time since feux de l'amour,there will be a feminine voice in one of jb's songs
that girl is a graduate from National Institue of Arts and will just sing in the chorus

Thanks for the updates, but I will also echo emobcbg's quetion! I won't be surprised if you are close to JB himself or Roger Ngandu!....lol Any reasons why JB decided to change who to give tracks?

yes i have some friends and family in both groups and i told them i am on a english speaking forum about congolese and african music so i try to get some info from them and share since unlike most of them i can communicate in english
its like  some free promotion i am doing them lol
actually did not change who to give tracks,i mean he did not remove song from one of the first list,he added the others so that everybody is satisfied and then after that full focus on chemin de fer and later on abraham's album
like i often said on the former forum, one song can generate about ten times the salary group employees get,so its a good strategy for those leaders to save their money, paying them peanuts but letting them earn enough through songs

bana boma participated on kibens song,on of of jb's songs, on seguin's,on ficarré's and many more
it seems that like he said when he presented them,jb is really eager to turn them into stars
they are fully integrated in the group and i can reveal that the way jb gave them so much space is not pleasing some singers who were in the gorup before them

Chai's departure confirmed he has pulled out the usual " i was never paid,i benefited nothing" reason to explain going solo and has already started performing concerts with his concert and recording his album
his song and all his vocal parts are being erased and replaced by other singers

great we don't have to hear chai in Balle De Match, hopefully the generiques will be good like Kipe ya Yo and Quel est Probleme etc. and I can't wait to hear papa cheri, Abel De Charme and Mignon Abraham and Nono Fudji and Atshouda and hopefully Benjamin Obama. And for Ingeta, archos do you know who sings the respective songs for kakol,adt yani mpuy. And don't Oliver,Cafe roum, and Eboa lotin and Tade have songs? P.s. hopefully these are the last songs Heritier will have with Werra

Indeed i forgot olivier,roum eboa and taddet maybe because their songs were supposed to be in suite et fin vol II already
as for kakol songs,i know that one of them is a werra and heritier duet with some other singers having small parts,another was by milito but it seems he left the group so i dont know how they dealt with it
for yanki, i will try to  know,at the moment its a well kept secret,its one of the rare songs which are not promoted yet

Thanks Archos, we can't do without you man. Am happy JB to hear you meant JB just added more participants.I was actually thinking of it looking at the first list, it was short meaning less tracks.but its good we BCBG die-hards will be treated to many tracks, I like it that way than the way he did on Kipe-ya-yo and quel est ton probleme! I guess this album will bring a new touch coz I can imagine Zulema,  Atchouda, Zulu Mbonda, Abel de Charme and others who have never composed tracks also contribution.good decision by JB. What is the name of the girl from NIA, has she become a permanent member??

Post by: Jdog on July 27, 2013, 04:44
See this is the problem I have with Werra always putting Heritier above everyone else, why does Heritier have a duet with Werra if he already has two songs that slot should be given to singer who have no songs on the album such as Robinho,Rice Matadien or Bebe Djong (I think that's his name ex, guy who sings like Fabregas) or the guy who sings like Didier Lacoste or the short guy  who sings like Olivier . And it would be such a shame if Diego Milito really left the group he is such a talented singer.

fleche ingeta and balle de match both nearing end expected for the dates i mentioned except that bcbg is doing everything to release it well before zenith despite some other artists being authorized to add songs only this month
in fact sakoko;cedric guez,jdl and zygal just got authorization for songs on balle de match
there is also a  project of a rumba sung by female dancers mbiliadama,zambrotta and mwana nsuka but it might be for the future group album,as jb wants it to be a serious song not singing for fun like kolo martyrs
23 songs for balle de match and  17 for fleche ingeta so  far
good thing is that both groups are also working on clips while in studio so there might be a couple if not the totality of clips ready when albums are out

maison mere musicians have finished their parts for fleche ingeta at studino ndiaye and are currently working on clips,only remains werra to sing and mabanga,album for november/december
bcbg are also finishing  studio sessions in kinshasa tonight in zola tempa studio,then they will go to europe for the 4 or so last sessions like in soyons serieux and also prepare in europe for the concert of zenith which is taken very very seriously
40 visas have been requested by the group and it seems it will be succesful thanks to the producer of zenith concrt

 jb had a press conference today where he was asked about which artists he will bring,he said till they dont have visas in their hands it would not be smart to say names,but he explained that he wished petit obama was on the list,but he has exams in december so school comes first(which somehow indicates room is open to new musicians and not only kibens,fudji and co)

If JB Mpiana has to reclaim his 1990s glory, this is the time. He has zennith and an album in the making which is a +. Now to fulfill that, he has to make sure the new album is well recorded, crystal clear and then walk with his head up to zennith. Hey, wait a minute, kibense, Rio should not escort him there but be replaced by energetic young guys. With 40 visas, jb now can go with zulema, Abel, atshuda, and not to forget trezeguet, bebeto and Gladys....we need energy at this concert please......

rio and kibens will be there i think,because no way they will give over 20 visas to guys who are coming to europe for the first time,and both have loads of passports filled with visas
champion is a solo artist now,and i think seguin will deliver,he always delivers in big concerts that's actually his problem he looks disinterested ometimes when its primus concerts in areas of kin or sunday concerts
the group,according to roger ngandu who is also in paris is rehearsing 11 hours a day under direction of gentamicine and choreographer  lukima until mid october thern they will arrive in two groups or in one depending on whether all the 40 visas are given

-in maison mere,werra planned to record a song in which he sings from first to last minute in paris but he had to go back to kin quickly, they are still working on few rumbas to allow singers like arnaké to participate
one generique will be done in kinshasa with jp kys and the other one in studio dem records of brazzaville
 apparently fans agree  for bill's participation on one of the generiques,album still before the end of the year
-in bcbg songs are finished except roger ngandu's song "ekoyebana" yet to be started they are at the moment i am writing in angola for a VIP  concert
once they are back they will record it and finish the 4 generiques and pick the 2 or 3 best for the cd
like ingeta,album still for end of the year maximum
 once album recording is finished,mixing and mastering in paris with the possible participation of alain makaba

I am also for the 4 generiques but i am sure they will say there is too many songs and not enough space it will end up like ficarré's song on roger's song of soyons serieux
there is 20 songs already without the generiques
as for makaba his pariticipation is not certain yet, but would definitely be welcome nobody so far has dealt with jb better than him,their understanding was telepathic back then
genta made me listen to 4 or 5 songs already and its promising so far
