Gotan Project: La Revancha Del Tango Label: XL This CD is in the acid-jazz/downtempo/dub/funk vein, but features Argentinean-inspired instrumentation (specifically tango instruments such as the accordion). There are some electronica/BPM remixes here. Most notable is the Astor Piazzolla classic film theme from “Last Tango in Paris”. Try: 2,4,8,11. 1. acid-jazz-y track w/ sad accordion (?) melodies & speech snippets 2. slow break-beats and smoky female vocals in Spanish 3. a downtempo track w/ some heavy bass & deep male vocals 4. a long jazz-y instrumental journey w/ some nice piano & accordion, kinda house-y 5. dubby bassline w/ some vocal snippets and accordion 6. again, a dubby bassline w/ smoky female vocals 7. big dubby bass and reverbed effects & samples 8. theme from “Last Tango in Paris” played on piano & accordion over funky bass & jazz beats (“Last Tango in Paris” is one of my all-time favorite movies) 9. an insistent bassline and build-up from piano 10. a slow downtempo track w/ big beats & accordion & tambourine 11. a deep-house remix of track #5 – not too bad 12. politically conscious hip-hop but not particularly exciting 13. stripped-down tech-y remix of track #5, some tweaky electronic warbly effects | ||
