Having recently bought the delicious Bajafondo Tango Club album (strongly recommended), I'm developing a taste for modern updates on the tango theme. Gotan project was the next logical step in the chain, and I'm not disappointed in the slightest by this cool, seductive dance music that sends a shiver down your spine. Take the original version without remixed bonus tracks and what you have is nigh on perfect late-night music for chilling out or romancing in warm weather.

Subtle blending of electronics, the traditional instruments for creating a tango tempo (eg. bandoneon - related to the accordian - violin and piano) and the creamy, passionate voice of Christina Vilallonga works brilliantly. You will not be disappointed!

A friend came over my house around Christmas ranting and raving about his latest CD. We tend to compare music we've bought but here was something very different. He also bought over Mondo Grosso's MG4 which I already own and highly recommend.

From the moment that the first track went down I knew that I had to own it. Lo and behold a few weeks later I am now the proud owner of this exquisite "one of the best of 2001" CD. I didn't think that you could revitalise tango music in this way. It is not just that it is the intricate beats and the various other influences thrown in to make this something every serious collector SHOULD HAVE IN THEIR COLLECTION!!

BUY IT YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED......

By Mr. Stuart Robert Harris VINE™ VOICE
Format:Audio CD
The name says it all - "Gotan" is a twist on "tango", the dance that's famed as "the vertical expression of a horizontal desire. Gotan takes the distinctive sound of the Buenos Aires squeezebox or bandoneon, plus violin plus the basic "slooow, sloooow, quick-quick sloooow" pulse and the sultry attitude of the tango, overlays loping bass'n'drums'n'dub and filters the whole mix through a witty Parisian post-modern sensibility.

It's slinky, seductive and very addictive.

And provocative. The opening track "Queremos paz" (We want peace) samples Che Guevara's 1964 address to the UN General Assembly and "El Capitalismo Foraneo" (Foreign Capitalism) echoes with the ghostly presence of Evita Peron. There are cool reworks of Zappa's piece "Chunga's Revenge" and Gato Barbieri's theme for the movie "Last Tango in Paris".

It's lounge, it's mellow, it's sexy and it has just the right edge of sweet Argentinean sadness.

FANTASTIC CD!
I could play this for ever in the car, at home, in my head! I would recommend to anyone even if you are not familiar with tango.

Not my taste in music, but my wife loves it. This is just as well, because I bought it for her!

La Revancha Del Tango
Good in parts like the curate's egg. I was hoping for something more traditional. It grows on you though, and still worth the money.

One interpretation of Tango
I wes disapointed. Not Tango as I expexted it to be. More like American/British pop.

Argentine Tango music at its best
This CD explores the argentine tango and folkloric music of argentine. It is slick, modern and very engaging. Read more

smooth sounds
Smooth slick tango-inspired music. More chill out than dance. More like St Germain than Astor Piazzola. I like it.
