KIN’GONGOLO KINIATA

Sunday 30 March 2025

In the middle of the bustling streets of Kinshasa, Kin’gongolo Kiniata emerged, a group redefining the boundaries of Congolese music while staying true to their rich cultural heritage. With their debut album, they bring a vibrant sound that fuses urban rhythms with electronic instruments and artisanal percussion. The result? An explosive fusion of past, present and future. Before conquering international festival stages in Europe and America, their musical journey took place on the streets of Kinshasa, where every beat and sound reflects the reality of everyday life. On Sunday 30 March 2025, the group can be seen live at PAARD!

The name ‘Kin’Gongolo Kiniata,’ meaning ‘the crushing sound,’ is a perfect metaphor for the group’s powerful sound. Their music is formed by instruments made from recycled materials such as plastic bottles and metal. This ingenuity reflects their ability to transform urban chaos into a unique symphony-a striking blend of Afropop, Congolese punk and experimental electronic influences.
