(1.) 'Kinshasa Succursale' is the second full length recording by BALOJI. It is more than a follow up album, it is a completely new departure for the artist. Originally born in south-eastern Congo, BALOJI immigrated to Belgium with his father at the age of four. His eternal quest for self-identity came to light when he spoke with his mother for the first time in 24 years. He knew he had to go back. This recording is the fruit of his return voyage to his motherland. Featuring Konono No.1, Zaïko Langa-Langa and other great musicians from Kinshasa, as well as American soul maverick Amp Fiddler, and Ghanaian/American hip hop artist Blitz The Ambassador.



A beautifully nuanced collage of soulfully rocking flavours. (The Telegraph, UK)

(2.) On "God Is My Bike", MAÏA VIDAL uses violins, accordion, guitar, percussion, toy instruments and her distinctive, moving voice to compose and arrange her own unique music. She blends modern, confident songwriting with shades of old world melodies, and takes us on a journey that is at once sweet and painfully honest, yet never loses its sense of wonderment.



Simple yet twisted, playful and delicate, [Maïa Vidal's] brief pop masterpieces don't evoke any speciific territory and don't burden themselves with any roots (Les Inrockuptibles, France)



Playful confident start from US-born, Franco-German-Japanese artiste… Combines heart-on-sleeve honesty, deceptively simple writing and tender vocals. (Uncut, UK)



Armed with her distinct multilingual vocals and an array of instruments, Maïa Vidal crafts sweet and quirky pop-folk songs…. Quirky, yet accessible and playful songwriting (Aurgasm, US)
