Rocco Rampino (born 1983 in Lecce), better known as Congorock, is an Italian electro, house and dance-punk producer who found fame with his song "Babylon" in 2010.
In 2012 Congorock toured with Barbadian R&B singer Rihanna on her "777 Tour", at around about the same time there is a Congorock remix of the Rihanna song Diamonds which made Congorock heard to Rihanna.
The song "Sirius" with Alle Benassi was included on the soundtrack to Chronicle by Josh Tank.
Congorock is managed by Three Six Zero Group.
In 2007 when moving to Los Angeles in the United States he began working with Bob "Bloody Beetroots" Rifo (also from Italy). The two began working together and eventually released their debut single at the same time, as a collaboration between the two. The song was called "Rombo" and featured on The Bloody Beetroots debut EP/album of the same name. The Rombo EP featured 5 songs. Congorock once stated in an interview on "The Bloody Beetroots Gazette" that he was Crookers #1 Fan, he was also influenced by the Basement Jaxx album Rooty.
Congorock and Bad Boy Bill brought some serious energy to Beta Nightclub in Waterloo (ON). Each had their own style, but together made the night complete. The crowd seemed to enjoy themselves immensely as you could see the non stop dancing throughout the video. Thanks to all for allowing us to record, especially thank to both Bill and Rocco for a superb night !

Unlike rock art in the Sahara and southern Africa, rock art in central Africa is still widely unknown. Presently inhabited by the Ndibu, one of the Kongo sub-groups, the Lovo Massif is situated north of the ancient Kongo kingdom. With 102 sites (including 16 decorated caves), this massif is the largest concentration of rock art in the entire region. Just like historical records and oral traditions, rock art can provide historians with first-class documentation that offers a glimpse of the past of Africa. Geoffroy Heimlich is a postdoctoral researcher at the French Institute of South Africa (IFAS) and at the Institut des Mondes Africains (IMAF) of the University of Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne. He received his Ph.D. in Archaeology at the Free University of Brussels, and in History at the Univ...

For many the sound has, had or still is evolving into what the americans like to call "EDM - Electronic Dance Music". However in Europe its early origins are derived from French or Italian Electro. We met Congorock, a great contributor to the original electro sound to speak about the past, hear his side of the Ed Banger story, speak Rihanna and more. With hits such as 'Babylon' or 'Ivory' he places himself in the harder section of electronic music, yet keeping the older electro fans nostalgic as he drops his music into a more modern approach. We at brandnite were very much honoured to have a few minutes of time with this legendary music industry figure. "flex whateva" at Flex Vienna with Congorock Ladies & Gents!

auf der sonne ist heute ein schwarzer fleck,
er war gestern schon da,
geht er jemals weg?
wie ein hut auf des baumes
allerhöchsten ast (so ist meine seele)
und der wind zerrt am zerbrochenen fahnenmast
(so ist meine seele)
und so stehe ich hier
wenn der regen fällt
und in meinem kopf dreht sich die ganze welt
keiner nimmt sie mir ab
ich trag die macht allein
und mein schicksal ist es
könig des leids zu sein
ein fossil tief im berg
für die nachwelt verlor'n (so ist meine seele)
und ein toter fisch
ewig im eis gefror'n ( so ist meine seele)
wie ein blauer wal
der an klippen zerfetzt ( so ist meine seele)
und ein schmetterling in nem spinnennetz
( so ist meine seele)
und so stehe ich hier
wenn der regen fällt
und in meinem kopf dreht sich die ganze welt
keiner nimmt sie mir ab
ich trag die macht allein
und mein schicksal ist es
könig des leids zu sein
wie ein könig
der seine macht verflucht
und ein reicher mann
der nach noch mehr reichtum sucht
wie ein blinder
der nachts über schatten wacht
ein skellet
das über volle teller lacht
und so stehe ich hier
wenn der regen fällt
und in meinem kopf dreht sich die ganze welt
keiner nimmt sie mir ab
ich trag die macht allein
und mein schicksal ist es
könig des leids (könig des leids)
und so stehe ich hier
wenn der regen fällt (wenn der regen fällt)
und in meinem kopf dreht sich die ganze welt (ich wird immer, immer könig des leids
sein)
keiner nimmt sie mir ab
ich trag die macht allein (königdes leids)
und mein schicksal ist es
könig des leids zu sein (oh-ho-oh)
und so stehe ich hier
wenn der regen fällt
und in meinem kopf dreht sich die ganze, ganze, ganze, ganze welt
keiner nimmt sie mir ab
ich trag die macht allein
und mein schicksal ist es
könig des leids zu sein
