2) On their previous tour, Disclosure arrived in Newport News, VA, 4 1/2 hours from home to learn that their show had been cancelled. Here, most bands would have called it a day, but instead they frantically called friends to search for shows via MySpace. They ended up playing for free and headlining a show in Richmond, VA. This is just one of many stories that showcase Disclosure’s dedication.
In the past 3 years they have released 3 albums, have been part of an East Coast distributed compilation, performed in 7 states, went on 2 self-booked tours, and played over 50 shows. They have an upcoming full East Coast tour scheduled for July/August 2010 and they have no plans of slowing down.
3) Side project of Crunch Pod artist C/A/T. With the Disclosure project, Ben Arp of C/A/T shifts the focus towards tense samples and hard rhythmic sequences. While C/A/T has had a more abstract sound, Disclosure presents a more sonically straight-forward approach to songwriting. “Full Disclosure” attempts to further lift the veil and reveal the hidden hand that orchestrates world events. Extremely limited run of 25 copies and available only at Crunch Pod and was only available at live C/A/T performances in Summer 2005.
CD-R version is out of print. This album was recently re-issued as a digital download direct from Crunch Pod.
4) An Alternative/Powerpop/Rock band from Faringdon, UK. Formed 5 years ago Disclosure have earnt their reputation as one of the most exciting bands to emerge from the Swindon area through relentless gigging, energetic shows and great sounds. Performing on stage with the likes of Young Guns and The Rileys, Disclosure have played at many of the biggest and most respected venues and festivals in and around Oxfordshire. Now signed with New Vision Records and having recently released their latest EP at the o2 academy2 Islington, Disclosure have never sounded so focussed and relevant and this year will be hitting venues around the UK.

Tondo
Disclosure Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Mbwiya ami a léma o (Tondoho mba é)
Tondoho mba é, tondoho mba é
Mbwiya ami a léma o
Tondoho mba é, tondoho mba é
Mbwiya ami a léma o
Tondoho mba é, tondoho mba é
Mbwiya ami a léma o
(?)
Tondoho mba é, tondoho mba é
Mbwiya ami a léma o (Tondoho mba é)
Tondoho mba é, tondoho mba é
Mbwiya ami a léma o
Tondoho mba é, tondoho mba é
Mbwiya ami a léma o
Tondoho mba é, tondoho mba é
Mbwiya ami a léma o
Tondoho mba é, tondoho mba é
Mbwiya ami a léma o (Tondoho mba é)
Tondoho mba é, tondoho mba é
Mbwiya ami a léma o
Tondoho mba é, tondoho mba é
Mbwiya ami a léma o
Tondoho mba é, tondoho mba é
Mbwiya ami a léma o
(?)
The lyrics to "Tondo" are primarily repetitive and nonsensical, with the repeated phrase "Tondoho mba é, tondoho mba é" serving as the central hook. However, the song also includes the phrase "Mbwiya ami a léma o", which is a phrase from the language of the Duala people of Cameroon. The song's featured vocalist, Eko Roosevelt, is from Cameroon and incorporates elements of his cultural heritage into the song.
The phrase "Mbwiya ami a léma o" roughly translates to "Listen to my words" or "Pay attention to me" in English. The use of this phrase in the song could be interpreted as a message to listeners to pay attention to the music and lyrics.
Overall, the lyrics of "Tondo" are more focused on creating a rhythmic and catchy sound than conveying a specific message. The repetition of the hook creates a hypnotic effect, and the inclusion of the Duala phrase adds an element of cultural significance.
