Free Music Review: A new injection of creative breath !
Hit: 5 Stars
For all of those who still think the tango is only tradition, there are bad news. Astor Piazolla was the untiring stalker who renewed and even widened the frontiers locals of a badly seen dance in the Twenties (As a matter of fact, Jorge Luis Borges termed it once a brothel `s reptile) and considered as a simple curiosity of sensuality 's exercise to become an authentic referential evidence, a musical genre that dressed showy clothes, expanding its action radius toward new horizons.
This recent ensemble has know to employ the essential roots of the forbidden fruit, blending it with new musical inflexions and enraptured hues. And more than a simple revenge, I think it constitutes a true revaluation of the expressive possibilities of a musical genre that only can be understood from the wise perspective wedged by Maria Luisa Bemberg a very gifted filmmaker who expressed accurately a painful true: "The Argentine 's tragedy turns around the fact is seen as a Latin American in Europe and an European in Latin America." That duality is even worst than a simple emigration or a banishment: I would term The Flying Dutchman 's syndrome, conceived as the incapacity to enroot with the land.
The crown track of the album is the fantastic version of the Last Tango in Paris, but there is still more to enjoy.
If you are still grasped the old concept of the tango as the elemental desperate anguish `s scream of unfinished passions, please remember this smart statement of Gustav Mahler: "Traditionalism is negligence."
Revancha Del Tango (Bonus CD) Poster
The debut by this Paris based trio is a relaxed blend of tango dance rhythms and Argentinean instrumentation. The group was brought together by their passion to combine sound with image and to marry electronic and acoustic music. They built on their house, dub, and hip-hop influenced productions by adding two of Argentina's finest tango musicians, the musical result being supremely distinctive, incorporating bandonion (a form of accordion), violin, and vocals. This release includes 2000's most memorable jazz-house hit, "Triptico", which has already sold over 400,000 copies worldwide. The US version features the original ten tracks from the European release, along with a special bonus disc of the "Santa Maria" video plus four audio tracks.Released in Europe in 2001, La Revancha Del Tango?s sexy combination of chillout programming and authentic tango music became a lounge favorite and led to massive sales. Lightning struck twice when it was released two years later in the States--the domestic debut attracted the attention of electronic music hipsters, tango freaks, and world music geeks. And rightfully so. The Gotan trio of Philippe Cohen Solal, Christoph H. Müller, and Eduardo Makaroff write the album's strongest material themselves, but their imaginative incorporation of Frank Zappa's "Chunga's Revenge," Gato Barbieri's theme from the movie Last Tango In Paris and, not surprisingly, Astor Piazzolla's "Vuelvo Al Sur" into the Gotan world shows just how broad and inclusive their tastes really are. Naysayers may complain that this album can be heard in every hip restaurant and clothing boutique from Paris to Los Angeles, but sometimes the cream does rise to the top and gain mass acceptance, as it has here. Also includes a bonus disc of four remixes. --Tad Hendrickson
