Tanghetto

Tanghetto is a Buenos Aires-based band that focuses its material in the combination of Argentine tango with electronic music, jazz and other musical genres. The “Tanghetto sound” is rather unique; it's a fusion of diverse sources of inspiration, both contemporary and traditional, that converge in Buenos Aires with the bandoneon (the nostalgic and characteristic instrument of the tango). Bandoneon takes the singer's role and is surrounded by diverse acoustic instruments and a sonic wall of synths and samplers.

Zingaros

La música de Zíngaros es sensible, descriptiva.
Evoca con acordes y sonidos las vivencias de gitanos de Europa del Este, con tonos que emigran del tango argentino.
En octubre de 2004, presentaron su primer C.D “Ojos negros” compuesto por melodías folklóricas rusas y gitanas de Europa del Este. Cantadas en romaní y ruso, o sólo instrumentales, las melodías de su colorido repertorio se transforman en verdaderas historias que recortan tradiciones y escenarios gitanos: mañanas de primavera, rondas en torno al fuego, noches de frío, viento, bailes, amores, sueños.

Following a varied past (also with rock and punk acts), in 2004 the surprising CD 'Santa Milonga' suddenly appeared - and in spring 2008 the new 'Maldito Tango' (on the Manaña label of Gotan Project...
