Bajofondo Tango Club

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bajofondo Tango Club is a South American music band consisting of seven musicians from Argentina and Uruguay. Often compared to Gotan Project, their music is a fusion of acoustic tango and electronic music, part of an evolving tango genre which is known as "Electrotango" or "Tango Fusion", which is greatly helping to bring tango back into the mainstream. The band, which prefers to refer itself as a "collective of composers, singers and artists", has a characteristic style that can be considered, besides the aforementioned mixture of tango and electronica, as an innovative form of DNB, house, chill out and trip-hop.

Their first record, Bajofondo Tango Club, was launched in 2004 with great success, with a second lone project from pianist/DJ/composer Luciano Supervielle greeted warmly by reviewers in late 2005.
