The band is from Congo Brazzaville and the composer of this song is Blaise Patraul. On the vocal section you will hear the late Rigadin Mavoungou who sung with Rapha Bounzeki and Dicky Roi.

Right at the bottom, I see a name Mayaula Mayoni, who was a recording artist, composer and a vocalist in DRC. He was once a member of TP Ok Jazz where he wrote lyrics of a famous song "Cherie Bondowe"

Apparently Brazzaville had copycat of each famous group from Kinshasa back in the days. Here are  other groups that simply were another from brazza
Bilengue sakana=Empire Bakuba

Moziki la Juventus= zaiko langa langa

Viva mandolina = anti choc bozi boziana

Extra musica bonk= a mixture of zaiko and wenge

I was to mention the same thing just the other day I was listening to Bilenge Sakana and the vocal lineup reminded of the trio Kadima (Pepe Kalle, Dilu Dilumona, and Papy Tex). And you are right Moziki La Juventus reminds me of Zaïko Langa Langa especially Toupie Toukala voice who reminds me of Likinga Redo funny enough Volvo 840 used to play lead guitar in Zaïko years later.

Speaking of Bilengue Sakana, two members of this band decided to do a nzonzing session with one of the leaders of Empire Bakuba (Pepe Kalle) and Choc Stars singer Debaba a year later. They would be Fuscos and Fely Akouala.
Here is the album
