in this phone interview he says  he played and arranged fally's  pharmacien,ferre's insectide,montana's general major.... and reveals that he played all(surely most lol) songs of ferre's coming album and he has some future projects in line with ferre already
that means one of marchouse,charly and hadji did not play much since two excellent session musicians in japonais and mbetenge say they played a lot

Yes Mbetenge has played on load loads loads of the songs in QQJD as he claims and we all know how everyone now talks about MarcHouse does not play its Olivier Tshimanga but what you all don't say is this one good example, Tshimanga played on most of the songs in Ingeta what was the result? Zero.

what people are not told is Ferre and MarcHouse work on songs and they know which rhythm ans solo direction to play their songs and when Ferre comes to Europe as he likes his sound to be so great (guess he got this from JB) he then calls these guys to participate and if so they can also make a change but only fools buy this story of Marchouse not playing because the guy is a genius just ask Reddy

And here is another video of Ferre's ex artists Jenny and Davido now even them are talking about Ferre's group smoking weed but the funny thing is in Ferre's band he does not have an artist like Omba who smokes so much weed, Kabuya where do I start and Diego the list is long

everytime I see these guys saying this I just laugh because only the blinds believe then

LOL you know how musicians are when they move from one group to another they tend to over attack to please their new leader

I think one thing most people including the music critics and bloggers don't understand about this issue is that Marchouse is the main rhythm guitarist and artistic director,he directs the flow of the music and he is the one who sets the base that is the original rhythm that the mi-soloists and solists have to play along to and it is the rhythm Marchouse initially records at the Kinshasa studios like Ndiaye,RTNC etc that the singers  add their vocals to and finally when Ferre goes abroad, other session musicians add their own works for instance, Olivier Tshimanga and Mbetenge,both settled abroad add their acoustic lead lines over what has already been recorded in Kin by Markhouse. For Ferre,rhythm guitar is the base of his music not lead which Olivier and Mbetenge specialise in. On some songs,Ferre has used keyboards as the base for instance the song Panzi Likolo otherwise most of Ferre's music is acoustic rhythm and lead so in effect, it's Charly Solo and Hadji Solo who are usually substituted for Tshimanga and Mbentenge when Ferre takes the music for finalisation abroad.

It is only on the album Fleche Ingeta that we saw that Tshimanga had to travel to Kin and recorded from the source studio so he actually set and played the rhythm on a number of songs instead of playing over what was recorded by Coreen. Lofombo also played bass in studio on the same Ingeta.

Sly, thanks bro and what was the result of the songs he played on Fleche Ingeta?  Tshimanga is not on the level that people put him because only 2 artist that use him and produce good music Papa Wemba and Ferre you know why, they know which road they are taking not relying on him.

 i dont think anybody on this earth except die hard fans of groups who are getting attacked by him often,its so obvious that the guy knows his stuff as a guitarist,but he gets that stick because probably never in history of our music a guitarist has been that controversial
its simply that other wise a guy who was trained in a line up of him,coreen,paty bass can not be the passenger he is made out to be purely because of how hard he attacks

Indeed. Fleche Ingeta was basically a flop,no song was exceptional and you could not even hear any trace of Tshimanga.
In Maison Mere, the only song that Tshimanga's impact was felt was the song Likambo on the older album Techno Malewa Sans Suite

This is a typical tshimangologie arrangement and don't get me wrong,he is an excellent guitarist,composer and arranger

Voila, it is Maison Mere and Quartier Latin fans who are undenial and it looks like Marchouse himself is not really bothered,he only answered once on how music is recorded and finalised in Europe and any other places.
