November 11th: Caceres and Chill Out - new Tango Cds
New Releases:
1. CACERES - Tango Clasico
2. LOS COSOS DE AL LAO - Japan-Tango-Tour
3. BUENOS AIRES ENSEMBLE - Tango Chill Out
4. CRISTOBAL REPETTO
Dear friends of Tango Argentino!
Again we are gladly suprised about all these great new releases, that we are
getting with every new delivery from Buenos Aires.
Often some kind of trendy music-style (such like Tango/Chill Out or
Tango/Electronic) is totally exhausted by each “more unknown” and
“much better” compilation or new recording, and it is quite difficult to find
out the REAL ONE.
We now have decided to present the following 4 CDs. Each of them is
representing a different tango-style:
1. CACERES - Tango Clasico
We are starting with the frenchman Juan Carlos Caceres and his new disc
“Tango Clasico”
These mainly for piano arranged Tangos are coalescing with Caceres’s
striking and husky voice and are accompanied by Bandoneon, Double-Bass
and Violin.
Even though the well known candombe-percussion and afro-rythms are not
here, Caceres nevertheless takes a bow to all the classic tangos, that are
enjoyable for listening and dancing as well.
Notable: 2 titels with JUAN JOSE MOSALINI (Bandoneon)

2. LOS COSOS DE AL LAO-Japan-Tango-Tour
The first CD of LOS COSOS “Tango-Buenos Aires-Argentina” is already
well introduced to all supporters of contemporary Tango/Jazz. Now we got
the second one and at the same time their first live CD.
The japenese audience is known for their extraordinary concert behaviour,
which means absolutly silent while the music’s playing and totaly freaking
out at the end of the show.
We noted this as an advantage, due to this the CD is sounding like a perfect
studio-production compared with other live-recordings, that normally are
suffering from a loss of dynamic and transparency.
Especially the Drum-Solo in “Quedamo Asi”, would even have caused
Astor Piazzolla to take pride in.

3. BUENOS AIRES ENSEMBLE - Tango Chill Out
The both presented Tango/ChillOut compilations:
Tango Chill Out - The Experience
and
Tango Chill Sessions
have already shown the way Tango is able to let us unbend and relax.
The a.m. CD of the BUENOS AIRES ENSEMBLE is another new
Tango/Chill Out disc, that is very emphatic particulary because of
GABRIELA MONTANERs’ voice .

4. CRISTOBAL REPETTO - Cristobal Repetto
Finally we are glad to introduce you to the most exceptionally voice of
Argentina these days.
Cristobal Repetto, 24 years young, and his Guitar-Trio are astonishing the
tango-community. His mentor and producer GUSTAVO SANTOLALLA
was paralyzed by Repetto’s style during a Milonga in Buenos Aires and
invited him to be a part of his successful project called BAJOFONDO
TANGOCLUB. During these sessions they both realised their passion for
classic guitar-tangos of the late 30’-50’ and soon recorded this self-titled
debut CD. The singing of Cristobal Repetto is indeed very UNIQUE.
Never before a voice has had only a few , or almost nothing in common
with the singers’ appearance (please take a look at the booklet). This is one
more reason why it’s by far the most thrilling tango-cd of 2004, yet.
