The first album of Extra Musica: for a long time it has been out of stock on discs. I remember I was searching for it for years until I could buy it on eBay in used condition. Quite a pity, as this album is one of their best according to many of their fans. A milestone in the history of Congolese music. Fortunately, now it can be downloaded from iTunes:

 

Very smart idea, whoever got it, to make it available, and not very common that a rare recording can be found in such a store, but surely very pleasing.

This for me the best album made by Extra musica, because it includes smooth rhythm from Durell's guitar, groovy bass-lines of Esperence Muanda (Espe-Bass), nice songs and Explosive solo's from Roga Roga(for me his best solo's ever made in a Extra-Musica album). It pity that they changed their rhythm after this album, which I can understand, because they were many time critized and accused of copying Wenge.

What's the reason of Guy-Guy Fall's departure ? Because I noticed that this is the only album of Extra Musica were Guy-Guy Fall had much vocals and that he contributed not much like Quetin Moyascko, Oxygene in the Confirmation-album and guys like Regis Touba and Doudou Copa had more vocales than him in the same album and it looks also like they wanted to isolate him from Extra Musica. Because if you look the videotapes of Extra Musica from 1993-96, you will notice that Guy-Guy Fall tried act like a leader and being entertaining in concerts by doing many scantene and dedications, but in concerts after the Confirmation-album you will see Guy-Guy barely sing and Herman Ngassaki taking his place more and more over.

It's funny to hear the end of Detresse and Amie Reviens, because if you compares it with the end of Voyage and Mon Ami Coboss from Wenge Musica, you will notice that Guy-Guy Fall tried to imited J.B. M'piana dedication lines.

I don't mind they changed the style. This debut album is quite good, but on later albums, starting from Ouragan, the chorus is much more refined. Actually from that point on they have recorded so good choruses, that I have to say you can hardly hear so good ones on any other Congolese releases. I wonder how they got this good sense of singing in group. Possibly it comes from the fact that they were chorus members in their childhood in Owando.

And also Kila Mbongo, regarding singing, not especially lyrics, is boring sometimes. Arafat 2500, the next animator is never boring. Once the seben arrives, he guarantees that it is full of joy. This coupled with the choruses makes them a special band in my mind. Recently, besides Roga's solos, he is the one I really miss from the group, for this particular reason I mentioned. Maybe his voice is not the most unique among animators, but his style is never boring.

Regis Touba and Christian Ambe are not the same person. Regis Touba sings and dance like Nyoka Longo of Zaiko and Christian Ambe sings more like a girl. Christian Ambe did not participate to the Confirmation-album because he left Extra Musica some months after the Noveaux Missiles-album, he was replaced by Abilissi. Christian Ambe joined Extra Musica International in 1998 along with Guy-Guy Fall, but Guy-Guy Fall himself would left them before the recording of their first album Super Helico. Regis Touba didn't participate in the Ouragan album. Confirmation album is the only album in Extra Musica were he participated.

Detresse is composed by Pinochet Thierry, Succes Extra by Roga-Roga Missle, Kende by Durell Loemba, Denide and Etape by Espe Bass.

I don't know why Guy-Guy Fall and Christian Ambe left Extra Musica and why Regis Touba didn't participate in Ouragan. The information about bands from Brazza are not really clear compared to bands from Kinshasa. Yes, Regis Touba participated in La Main Noire album.

I don't know why Abilissi left Extra Musica, but the many peoples says that he feared Papy Jah(the guy who sings almost like Ferre Gola). His last album in Extra Musica Zangul was Shalai, he composed in the same album the song Tu Me Manques.

The composer of Ziya is Oxygene and of Inondation is Roga Roga.

Pinochet Thierry was a simple band-administrator in Extra Musica who chose the side of Quetin Moyascko and started with him and Durrel Loemba Extra Musica International Z1 in 1998, after financial disputes and war of leadership between Quetin Moyascko who was then president (with co-founder Durell Loemba on his side) and Roga Roga who was Chef d'Orchestre with band-manager Ferreol Ngassakys and the co-founders Espe Bass, Ramatoulay and Kila-Mbongo on his side.

The first verse of the song Marc is Mellon Ngakana "Ebale Mbonge", the second Christian Ambe, the third Regis Touba "Le Tigre"and the fourth is Quetin Moyascko "Envoye Special" and the animation is done by Etats Unis (who's now in Extra Musica Zangul).

Thank you again mvulusi96.

I don't have a picture of them. Glidaz Pozi and Emery Mbonda are conga-players and Christian Kingstall is a keyboard-player they where all there from the start till the last tour of Extra Musica in Europe (2001). Arnaud Laguna was an ex guitartist of Extra Musica International who played first rhythm and became after Durrel's departure lead-guitarist of the same band. Cyrill Malonga is an ex keyboard-player of Extra Musica International. Like I've said before information about bands from Brazzaville are not really clear compared to bands from Kinshasa, so I don't know why they all left. For Glidaz Pozi I only know that he composed a song called Karen Amour which was meant to released in the album Trop c'Est Trop, but there was no more place in the cd, so the producer decided to released it only on VHS and DVD along with the songs Kayembe Bikissa Nga(of Espe Bass) and Papato(of Oxygene) which also didn't make in the cd. But I don't think that it was the reason that he left, because the Trop c'est Trop came out when Extra Musica was already in Brazzaville.

thanks again mvulusi96.

The composer of Redoutable is Espe Bass.

For the second time Pinocet Thierry is not a musician, but a simple band-administrator like Sipo Jazz in Quartier Latin and  Eliot Mondombe in Wenge Maison Mere. I don't know why Regis Touba didn't participate in Ouragan and of he is still an artist now. Also the same for Christian Ambe, I don't know what he was doing before to join Extra Musica International. The only thing that I know about Christian Ambe is that he left Extra Musica International along with Mellion Ngakana in 2004 and recorded with him a R&B album called Flash which was produced by S.I.P.E. Production.

Extra Musica International doesn't really exist anymore, Quetin sometimes reunit ex'Extra Musica Zangul/International members and some musicians from other Brazza-bands to perform sometimes in French city. Quetin recorded 2 years ago along with Durrel Loemba and some ex'Extra Musica International members a reunion-album which is still not on the market
