is the longest exisiting and most popular soukous formation in the Netherlands. The eleven musicians from the Congo play exclusively their own compositions which accompany their unique dance choreography. Artistic leader and the chief composer of Alliance is lead singer Solo Dndinga, younger brother of the famed O.K. Jazz vocalist Ntesa Dalienst, who has worked together with such names as Sam Mangwana, Rochereau and Franco. After their first CD "NouveIle Époque", which was rreleased in 1997, Alliance recorded their second CD, titled "CONTROL!" and according to them "100% Ndombolo". That is the latest Congolese dance rage that came out of Kinshasa and conquered Africa and is still as popular as ever. Essential for the Ndombolo is the "animation", the African rap with wich the dance energy is brought to boiling point. Their work is quite distinct, due to the excellent compositions, unique arrangements and especially the multi vocal song repertoire..
