CD Reviews

Sweet silky voice

mkosa | seattle, wa United States | 09/26/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"When I heard a collaboration between Shiko Mawatu and Madilu I was floored. This album is quintessential Madilu. For those who still yearn for his early days with the Great Mzee Franco, you will not be disappointed. Shiko Mawatu's guitar is a good complement to Madilu's silky voice. I wonder if Madilu did anything with Maika Munan. This album is a celebration of one of the best from Demokratik Republik ya Kongo (Kiswahili)."

A Gorgeous Farewell

Juan Mobili | Valley Cottage, NY USA | 10/19/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"If there's one reason not to fully rejoice about Madilu System's new album is his unfortunate passing not long before the release of La Bonne Humeur.

Listen to his voice, aged like a great brandy and still crazy with joy. A lingering sweetness to assuage his death."
