"Talk about worlds colliding, this month’s Keep Watch comes courtesy of Congorock, and fuses together every conceivable genre in electronic music to create a sound all it’s own. Completely balanced, it’s a perfect mix to kick off spring and summer with, featuring a range of the biggest tracks from the darker side of the spectrum to the poppy, lighter side of things.  Here’s a forty minute look into what’s happening in Italy’s underground Dance scene.
Citing influences from Dubsided to Capcom, Congorock blends together a range of styles to create his own brand of effervescent house. Originally from the southern town of Lecce, Congorock now calls Milan home, and his music is very rapidly crossing borders worldwide. Having recently released his first EP for Fool’s Gold “Runark”, Congorock joins the ranks with Crookers and Bloody Beetroots at the top of Italy’s burgeoning electronic scene."

"Volume 2 of the FOOLCAST series comes from none other than our own electro prodigy Congorock, but it’s not what you might expect. We listen to all kinds of stuff at FG HQ and want the FOOLCAST to reflect that - so we asked him to put together a mix of some of his punk and hardcore favorites that would show off a different side of his personality and keep things musically unpredictable on the blog.Says Rocco: Hey brothers, here’s my hardcore punk mix for Fool’s Gold. I wanted to call it “The Furious Years” like something related to the past - its old stuff (nothing after 2003) that I listened to when I was younger. It was total fun working on this because I rediscovered music I didnt remember at all! I put some tracks from my old bands (La Quiete and Death Of Anna Karina), Steve Aoki sings on the This Machine Kills track (his old band), and there’s even a His Hero Is Gone track called “Fool’s Gold”. I hope you like it!Download the podcast (and subscribe to the whole series to get future mixes as soon as they drop!) at iTunes or via your favorite RSS reader at the FG podcast page. Tracklist after the jump, more heat on the way!"

As promised, the debut single from Congorock is out now as a digital exclusive on Turntable Lab, with all other web stores to follow in two weeks (and vinyl berry berry soon!). It’s the seventeenth (!!!) release on our fine little label, and we couldn’t be happier.

BUY IT NOW ON TURNTABLELAB

The single comes backed with an amazing extended remix by Jokers Of The Scene as well as two more Congorock originals, “Exodus” and “Hybro.” The digital release also features an additional Runark remix by His Majesty Andre. More from this Italian original coming soon!

Congorock - Trust No One Mixx (zShare)

Congorock is on the verge of getting some serious and much deserved attention not unlike his countrymen in Crookers, The Bloody Beetroots, Pulling Teeth, 3 Is A Crowd who all seem to be part of a growing Italian community. It wasn't too long ago that we received an e-mail from a humble italian asking us to put up one of his tracks and since then he's gone on to work with among others fellow Milanese heavy hitters in The Bloody Beetroots and dj'ing with Goose etc. He will be a name to look out for in 2008. This is his latest mix (done in conjunction with Fridge Mag, Don't Fuck About and Rocket Club) that's bound to get the party started with its fine and selected blend of b-more and jacking fidget house.
