Tango is the music of a lively, highly creative and uncompromising young generation of musicians. Like no other traditional music style it has been radically transformed over the past decades and been connected to ever new musical and cultural contexts. And like no other genre it proved to be versatile without losing its depth and fascination. Barrio Tango is featuring the cream of the crop of the so-called Tango Nuevo. Astor Piazolla is considered to be the godfather of this genre, but his heritage is maintained and enhanced in various ways. Hence you will find on this sampler not only electronic avant-garde combined with Modern Jazz and tango rhythms by Tango Crash or Tango Inglès by Tango Siempre blending Tango and Jazz, but also the danceable and club-suited Tango by Otros Aires and last not least tango back to the roots, that is the street, with a focus on song and story by Acho Estol and La Chicana.
