1. Revancha Del Tango Rarlaba

The Gotan Project brought Latin/electronic fusion to a whole new level with their debut album LA REVANCHA DEL TANGO. Taking the sensuous tango as their base, they invigorate their music with a sinuous grace, creating music that's at once familiar and tremendously invigorating.

The swelling accordions on 'Queremos Paz' make you feel as if you're strolling through a Buenos Aires bazaar, while the rhythmic rigor and seductive vocals of 'Epoca' are all about the ballroom. But tango isn't the only flavor on the menu: 'Chunga's Revenge' and 'Santa Maria (Del Buen Ayre)have hints of dub, while 'Triptico' edges into house. 'Vuelvo Al Sur' (originally written by tango master Astor Piazzolla) returns us to the pure delight of modernized tango. But my favorite track has to be the cover of 'Last Tango in Paris.' While the melody is straightforward, the careful layering of instruments (piano, strings, accordion) give the song a cumulative strength and a swooning elegance. While their style has been emulated a hundred times over by now, no one has quite touched their achievement. Balsamico for your mind and soul!) 'Queremos' Paz (track one), I think, means something like 'Let's find peace' and this is what this music is all about.

Deep soulful crunchy beats being Thievery Corporation's equal, jazzy percussive bits, dubby FX and an overall sweet melancholic moodorama created by strings and the omnipresent bandoneon from the Tango tradition make this an outstanding first release of an outstanding musical project (Gotan means Tango reversed). Be enchanted by listening to the soothing Spanish vocals of Cristina Villalonga in tracks two and six.

Transition of traditional treasures into modern club culture on a high-end quality level, relaxed but energizing.
