Toko Telo, translating as "group of three", could be considered a Malagasy super group, as for this project three heavyweights from the Malagasy music scene joined forces. Accordionist Regis Gizavo needs little introduction and the same is true for guitarist D'Gary. Along with her sister Lala, vocalist Monica Njava was the face of the popular band Njava. Opener 'Hainao Moa', in which a drunken man checks if his zebu was rigged in the proper fashion, could be the soundtrack to a Malagasy campaign against driving under the influence, in 'Be Tepotepo', the threesome tackles the growing problem of cattle robberies in Madagascar, and, of course, deforestation remains a major problem on the island ('Mikea'). For the songs on 'Toy Raha Toy' (loosely translated: "there you have it" or "here it is", an expression that on the album is given a somewhat sexual charge when a provocative woman tries to seduce a reticent man) the trio explored Malagasy genres like tsapiky, jihe and beko and that has resulted in a highly enjoyable melancholic album.
