Hit: 5 Stars

The Paris-based Gotan Project is trio Philippe Cohen Solal (France), Eduardo Makaroff (Argentina), and Christoph H. M?ller (Switzerland). Named after tango master Carlos Gardel's racehorse, Lun?tico, and recorded in both Buenos Aires and Paris, the band's intoxicating 2006 tango album is infused with intriguing electronica samples, beats, and euro dance grooves. Adding to the global grooves, the album also features collaborations with both Argentine Gustavo Beytelmann on piano and the Tucson, Arizona band, Calexico. Tracks from this highly-recommended album include:

1. Amor Porteno (featuring Calexico)
2. Notas (featuringJuan Carlos Cacares)
3. Diferente
4. Celos
5. Lunatico
6. Mi Confesion (featuring Koxmoz)

Lun?tico Poster

The Gotan Project literally took the world by storm in 2003 with its million-selling La Revancha Del Tango. Skillfully mixing the heated passion of tango with the cool insistent beats of dance music, the group kept the best of both genres as it offered up an unheralded fusion. This time around, the production team delves further into the tradition, cutting down on the dub production filigree and overarching electronic programming--now sexy grooves often come on the back of organic beats and an unprocessed sound captured during live studio sessions in Buenos Aires. This new focus is furthered with conventional bandoneon soloing as well as acoustic piano and string section backing. Nonetheless, kids craving to cut a rug will dig "Diferente" and "Notas," while the robust "Amor Porteno" (featuring Calexico) is the group's most muscular tune to date. More skilled than the debut, Lunatico is no sophomore slump, though hardcore house music fans may want to wait for remixes. --Tad Hendrickson
Not wanting to replicate what their debut, "La Revancha Del Tango", had achieved musically, the group has a decidedly stronger emphasis on the organic roots of tango on "Lunatico" and utilized a host of local musicians from Buenos Aires; a complete string section, two emcees, a trombonist, and Argentine piano legend and long time Gotan collaborator Gustavo Beytelmann. The result is their most accomplished work yet. "The beats are sparse and liquid, and the transition from Buenos Aires bordello to European dance floor is seamless" - Rolling Stone. "A jiggy melange of tango with a dab of dub" - Entertainment Weekly. "...an intriguing blend of traditional, passionate tango with cool, contemporary electronica" - LA Times.
Limited Edition enhanced two CD version of Gotan Project's latest opus. After the worldwide success of Lunatico, Gotan Project are releasing this Christmas Edition for this festive season. Disc One contains the fantastic original full Lunatico album while the bonus CD, Disc Two, contains five unreleased tracks, two enhanced music videos, Santa Maria Live Sessions and more. Eduardo and fellow Gotan producers; Parisian Philippe Cohen Solal and Swiss-born Christoph H. M?ller, had flown from their homes in Paris to record the new album, Lunatico, in Buenos Aires' prestigious Studio ION - the famed venue where tango greats like Astor Piazzolla had once laid down their aural magic to vast reel-to-reel tape machines. Fellow collaborators; Argentine Bandoneonist, Nini Flores, and Barcelona-based vocalist, Cristina Vilallonga, joined up with them at their Substudioz back in the French capital and thus began the completion, hidden under top secrecy. Ya Basta. 2006.
