Release Notes:
Before they perfected the electronica-meets-tango sound of the Gotan Project,
Paris musicians Philippe Cohen Solal and Christoph H. Mueller worked together in
the Boys from Brazil and Stereo Action Unlimited as early as 1996. Releasing
their music on Solal's Ya Basta label, the two quickly caught the ears of
Jazzanova, Gilles Peterson, Mr. Scruff, and other electronica tastemakers, while
Coca-Cola picked a Boys from Brazil track for a European television commercial.
Despite all the success, the duo wanted a project that had a more consistent
mood. Feeling that both tango and dub had a subdued and melancholic sound, they
decided to combine the genres. With the addition of Eduardo Makaroff in 1999,
they formed the Gotan Project and released their first of four 10"s on Ya Basta
in February 2000. The band had drummed up quite a buzz in the U.K. and European
press, and soon XL Recordings snagged the group. XL issued their full-length
debut, La Revancha del Tango, in 2001, and the self-proclaimed "top Argentinian
musicians exiled in Paris" toured to support the album, with guest musicians and
a video backdrop by multimedia artist Prisca Lobjoy. Lunatico, from 2006, was
named after tango legend Carlos Gardel's champion racehorse. Tango 3.0 appeared
in 2010.
