Manuel Wandji is an esthete of cadence who understood very early, that the heart of music is percussion, which you have to beat with dexterity to bring sound to life. Emeritus music producer, he contributed greatly to the success of the renowned Cameroonian artist Henri Dikongué, by producing his first two Albums “Wa” and “c’est la vie”, which have become benchmark albums for organic music. Artist at heart, Wambo as his close friends and fans call him, stopped by Flashmag this month, to tell us about his long career which has seen him perform on the 4 corners of the planet in the company of the greatest such as Manu Dibango, Geoffrey Oryema, Ben Harper, Tom Jones, or Pierre Akendengue.
