A label for productions by Chris Ochuodho for Raha Tele in Nairobi, Editions Chris seems to have operated in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The difference between the label’s three incarnations is hard to tell, although it may be significant that Editions Chris, Editions Chris R and Raha Tele all feature productions by Chris and Kalle, but Editions Chris Tetemeko has dropped this joint byline.


Both Les Kinois and Super Bwambe were Congolese bands based in Kenya, while Les Moto Moto were Les Wanyika recording under another name. Orch Monama features writing credits for Jean Monimambo, so they may well be Orch Shika Shika operating under another name too.
