Since 2015, Édouard Ribouillault and Amédée De Murcia blend genres such as techno, dub, noise and industrial in a wild bass music bubble.
OD Bongo - Bongoville. Carton Records, Zamzam, Prix Libre, Basaltes, 2026
This is not a dovish record, nor does it seek compromise. It's a physical, nocturnal, and hallucinatory job, designed as much for extreme hi‑fi systems as for the most hostile clubs. OD Bongo manage to transform disorder into language, noise into storytelling, confirming themselves as one of the most radical and coherent realities of the contemporary European electronic scene. The album puts controlled disorder at its center: rhythmic structures that break, accelerate, and collapse, becoming a true expressive code. Chaos is not an accident, but the engine of sound storytelling. The songs insist on saturated low frequencies, heavy reverberations and sound pressure, transforming listening into a corporeal, almost tactile experience. The theme of music as a physical force runs through the entire album.
With Bongoville, OD Bongo builds an unstable city, saturated with bass, crumpled metal sheets, digital bounces and dub mirages. Between hazy techno, industrial trap, juke, gqom and noise, Édouard Ribouillault and Amédée de Murcia transform their arsenal of machines into a clandestine amusement park, where the rhythms seem to run faster than their own shadow.
