Congorock “Babylon” 5 Year Anniversary + Free 4B Remix

Posted on Apr 13th, 2015

When A-Trak told Thump the History Of Fool’s Gold in Ten Songs, he singled out Congorock’s 2010 jam “Babylon” as a scene-transcending track that brought indie and big-room worlds together. Five years later, the tune still sounds immediate, epic and fresh. So why not celebrate?

Hit foolsgoldrecs.com/babylon to download a brand new remix of the song by heavy-duty dance upstart 4B (first heard in DJ Snake’s Ultra set and ready to take over a festival near you), grab Babylon and its accompanying remix EP (featuring Steve Angello, Proxy, and rave legend CJ Bolland) on iTunes, and for a limited time, purchase copies of the Babylon vinyl (with sleeve art by Dust La Rock) and logo tee for just $5 each. Fire!
