Tanghetto - Emigrante (Electrotango) (2004)
Posted by Sisca Cute Love U in *Music*, *South and Central America*, Argentina on Monday, April 27, 2009
«Tanghetto è una band argentina diretta da Max Masri (sintetizzatori e programmazione) e Diego S. Velázquez (chitarre), formatasi nel 2002. Il nome “Tanghetto” (la combinazione delle parole “tango” e “ghetto”) si ispira alle comunità di esiliati argentini all’estero.Negli anni ‘90, Max Masri (uno degli ultimi e più giovani discepoli del leggendario compositore Virgilio Expósito) torna a Buenos
Adriana Varela - Maquillaje (1991-1993)
Posted by Sisca Cute Love U in *Music*, *South and Central America*, Argentina on Friday, November 7, 2008
«Es en la actualidad la más rutilante estrella de la canción ciudadana, la más vendedora, la que más graba, la que más presencia tiene en los escenarios de Buenos Aires. También, la más discutida por los tangueros tradicionales, que consideran que habla en vez de cantar y que representa una mala imitación del "Polaco" Goyeneche de la última etapa. En la vereda opuesta, provoca la admiración de
Putumayo Presents: Nuevo Latino (2004)
«This is the perfect chill disc to throw in your musical rotation. A mix and match grab bag of musical styles with one common thread; it's in a Latin groove. The artists span the globe which is what one comes to expect from Putumayo. The styles of music run the gamut of Latin exotica but with an edge of electronica that results in world beats with a modern attitude. It is very exciting to hear
Kevin Johansen & the Nada - Sur O No Sur (2003)
Posted by Sisca Cute Love U in *Music*, *North America*, *South and Central America*, Argentina, U.S.A. on Saturday, March 22, 2008
«It's hard to imagine a more disjointed upbringing than Kevin Johansen's: the songwriter grew up in Alaska and Argentina (to an American father and Argentinean mother). As an adult he spent a decade in New York City honing his chops and writing. Since moving to Buenos Aires in 2000, he's become one of Argentina's biggest pop stars thanks to a mildly psychedelic American-style folk song sung in
Mercedes Sosa - 30 Años (1993)
Posted by Sisca Cute Love U in *Music*, *South and Central America*, Argentina on Saturday, March 8, 2008
«The driving force behind the nueva canción movement, singer Mercedes Sosa was born and raised in Tucumán, Argentina, beginning her performing career at age 15 after taking top honors in a radio station amateur competition. A rich, expressive vocalist and a gifted interpreter, Sosa was dubbed "the voice of the silent majority" for her choice of overtly political material, and alongside artists
Los Guruses - Menos Pregunta Dios Y Perdona (1996)
Posted by Sisca Cute Love U in *Music*, *South and Central America*, Argentina on Tuesday, February 19, 2008
Argentinian rock band Los Guruses kindly offers their 1996 album. Thanx, guys! «Hace muchísimos años, en una diminuta aldea de la lejana provincia de Santa Fe, llamada Casilda por sus habitantes y por otras personas, la Mala Suerte de la Música se anotó un garbanzo, tras lo cual sonrió malignamente, como es su costumbre. Unió a un grupo de individuos de dudosa calaña, comportamiento vagamente
Hybrid Tango - Hybrid Tango (2004)
Posted by Sisca Cute Love U in *Music*, *South and Central America*, Argentina on Monday, January 28, 2008
«In the mid 90s, Max Masri (synths and programming – in his teens one of the last disciples of the legendary tango maestro Virgilio Expósito) went back to Buenos Aires from Germany after sharing interesting experiences with argentine emigrants and, because of that, brought the idea to create a new musical language, blending tango and modern sounds.In late 1998 he started working with Diego S.
Diana Baroni & Sapukai - Son de los Diablos: Tonadas afro-hispanas del Perù (2002)
Posted by Sisca Cute Love U in *Music*, *South and Central America*, Argentina, Peru on Tuesday, October 16, 2007
«On sait que le recherche de Diana Baroni cible les intonations justes, au carrefour du respect des indications des manuscrits abordés, et de la pratique encore actuelle dans la rue péruvienne. De fait, qui a assisté au carnaval de Lima, serait frappé de retrouver ici les consonances et la vitalité rythmique pourtant vielles de plus de deux cents ans. La « danza de carnaval » : son de los diablos
