Produced by Oluoch Kanindo and POK Music Stores of Nairobi and with a label design that owes a lot stylistically to Editions Veve, this label functioned in the mid to late 1970s.


Of the records catalogued so far, apart from one release by Johnny Bokelo’s Orch Conga International, the label seems to have specialised in expatriate Congolese bands based in Kenya such as Orchestras Moja One and Special Liwanza. Read more about them at the Muzikifan website.


Why Zumba has a very different catalogue number to the others is unclear.
