The album introduced the world to the band's self-described \"tradi-modern\" sound-a hypnotic fusion of traditional Bazombo trance music and raw, distorted electronics, known as \"Scrapheap Electro.\" The music is built on three likembés (thumb pianos) electrified using DIY pick-ups fashioned from car parts, such as alternator magnets. Recorded in Kinshasa by producer Vincent Kenis, the album captures a gritty, overdriven aesthetic that resonated with fans of punk, noise, and electronic music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist Website: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/konono1.bandcamp.com\/\"\u003ekonono1.bandcamp.com\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelated Artists: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/search?q='Congotronics%20International'\"\u003eCongotronics International\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e","brand":null,"offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42270270914642,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1712\/4551\/files\/konono-n_1-congotronics-Cover-Art.jpg?v=1769650081","url":"https:\/\/www.artrockstore.com\/en-jp\/products\/konomo-no1-congotronics-album","provider":"Artrockstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
