Formed in 1999, the Gotan Project's first release "Vuelvo Al Sur / El Capitalismo Foraneo" was followed by the 2001 album "La Revancha del Tango". The group brings the tango into modern day music by incorporating beats & breaks. The album contains "Epoca" which might be recognized from the Jet Dry dishwasher TV commercial.
"(In) 2010, music blare(d) from the radio that quite comfortably merges rhythms from Serbia and Colombia, the voice of Oumou Sangaré and the melodic thump of Maori reggae. But when it comes the new world music ie. the merging of DJ culture with music from the worldwide underground Gotan Project were the first to successfully bring the traditional and the folkloric into the electronic space. The million selling La revancha del tango was followed by their second album the more jazz influenced Lunático and Gotan Project toured the world with their new world music.
"I'd always been a fan of Astor Piazzolla who I'd seen performing at Montreux Jazz Festival aged 14. Ever since then I'd been seduced by the bandoneón as an instrument and was curious about hearing it outside of its traditional bubble. Gotan Project not only established a unique and highly influential sound but they've also preserved the class and elegance of this instrument...
"Broadcasting on the BBC and worldwide for 20 years, there are a handful of records that have had such a huge impact on my listeners. Alongside the likes of the Cinematic Orchestra, Zero 7, Jill Scott and Mos Def, the Gotan Project came out and bit the listener hard. I'll never forget the phenomenal response that tracks like Tríptico and Santa María (Del Buen Ayre) from La revancha del tango invoked. Nearly a decade since that landmark release, this record has everything that I want to hear from Mssrs. Cohen Solal, Makaroff and Müller... " - Gilles Peterson
"The Paris-based band have reinvented the tango for a post-modern public." - The Times
"Fusion of world music dance music are almost ubiquitous but Gotan are exceptional... It's an irresistible mix..." - Evening Standard
