Fongola

by KOKOKO!

Fongola cover art

Emerging from the streets of Kinshasa, this collective utilizes upcycled materials—including typewriters, water bottles, and engine parts—as percussive instruments to forge an explosive strain of DIY dance-punk. The album brilliantly captures the frenetic, chaotic energy of the Congolese capital, blending distorted analog synthesizers with relentless, polyrhythmic grooves.
