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.

Summary: Great Tango cd
Comment: This cd is one of the best cd's I have heard for dancing Argentine Tango. If your a Tango dancer you will love it. It also has a video that shows clips of Argentine Tango.

Summary: Chill out Tango!!
Comment: I was introduced to this CD by my cousin Chike (who is aware that I love experimenting musically), and I love it! The Gotan Project (Gotan is a reversal of the syllables in the word Tango) comprises a multinational trio, and their style is Jazzy Electro Tango (well, that's how I describe it), largely instrumental, with a few vocals usually spoken and in Spanish.
However, an understanding of Spanish isn't necesary to appreciate this calming, beautiful music. Yes, it does sound like what you'd hear in the background at some swanky lounge or bar (like the Amazon review mentions), but it's one that would have you asking the waiter "Who plays that?".
My favourites are "Una musica brutal" (with lovely female vocals), the piano driven beauty "Last tango in Paris", "La del ruso", and the eerie sounding horn sprinkled "Chunga's revenge" (with male spoken vocals), apparently a remake of a Frank Zappa song.
Very classy Chill Out music. Thank you Chike!

Summary: Shhh...close your eyes.....
Comment: ....and you're dancing close to the most amazing partner...bodies one...breathing in unison...sliding your leg along your sexy partner's leg.... There isn't anything about this music that is short of sensual and erotic...you can almost feel their hand sliding gently down your neck.......
Reality now hits...urban, gently pulsing, sophisticated, character, soulful, reminiscent, erotic, and sensual are all words to describe this album....
I first heard Santa Maria a few years ago and finally found the artist and album...it does not disappoint!

Summary: Great house/dance CD
Comment: Although this CD is more house music than I expected, I still liked it. Lunatico was more what I was looking for, and I prefered that one. However, both are great!
