Jaojoby
Aza Arianao (Indigo)
Jaojoby is the reigning king of salegy, and is known for creating his country's most infectious, danceable music. If you're partial to the sweetly intertwining electric guitars that are an integral part of Congolese popular music, you'll almost certainly enjoy Jaojoby. The music is rich in vocal harmonies, powerful percussion, nifty electric bass coupled with a warm and generous spirit.

Other recordings by Jaojoby
Press from the record label:
Jaojoby is one of the founders of the salegy, and without any doubt its most famous interpreter. They return this year with a third album for Indigo, Aza Ariano, again under the direction of Herve Romagny. A machine of relentless rhythms , a hurricane of sounds, Eusèbe Jaojoby is the king of the urban popular music of the Red Island. Over several decades salegy became the symbol of the festival, a dance where bodies blaze in a musical tornado. Jaojoby conceived a national style, a mixture of Western instrumentation, old insular melodies and local rhythms, bearing with wonder the voices of Jaojoby and its chorus-singers.

Please note!
Most CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am not
going to con you by wrapping them
here just to make you think they
have been sterilized in America.
We guarantee that the CDs and the
contents are all brand new and in
perfect condition. Whenever I
can, I use recycled shipping
materials. They may not look as
pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
