Rook welcomed DJ WiLDman to the store earlier this year. He's played at BBE Store, 100 Club and held down a residency at Clerkenwell House, and is currently part of CJC / All Hands on Deck crew, based in Bristol. For his visit to Rook, however, Dan brought a bag of Congolese vinyl dating from the 70s / 80s.

His interest in this genre has stemmed from musical involvement as guitarist with Grupo Lokito and Matondology. The in-store mix features many of the most important Congolese artists and bands including Tabu Ley, Franco, Youlou Mabiala, Bantous De Capitale, Le Peuple, Minzoto Wella Wella, Orch Rumbaya, Bella Bella, Orch Veve and Lipua Lipua.
