Gotan Project--Must listen music

NeilGabriel

I posted this on "what are you listening to," but I wanted to give a separate post because I think this music is so good. Keep in mind, I grew up on classic rock, still listen to a lot of rock and post rock, but I have gotten into some of the new "fusion" stuff like Theivery Corporation, the Dining Rooms and especially this thing called the Gotan Project, with French and Argentinan musicians. It is apparently a tango variant, but on a good sound system, SDA speakers in particular, I think it sounds amazing. Lunatico is my favorite and I won't try to spell the other two CD titles. On the rowdier side is a recent find of a guy who has been around awhile, Rachid Taha, a French-Algerian. He has a great cover of Rock the Casbah. Discovered him from the soundtrack to Blackhawk Down. If you check out Gotan Project, let me know what you think.
