Singer Intro


Gotan Project is a musical group based in Paris (France), consisting of musicians Eduardo Makaroff (Argentine), Philippe Cohen Solal (French) and Christoph H. Müller (Swiss), a former member of Touch El Arab.

History

Gotan Project formed in 1999. Their first release was 'Vuelvo Al Sur/El Capitalismo Foráneo' in 2000, followed by the album La Revancha del Tango in 2001. Their music is based on Argentinean tango, but also uses elements such as samples, beats, and breaks.

Live material was also broadcast on Gilles Peterson's world music show Worldwide on BBC Radio 1 in May 2004. The band has also released a DJ set: Inspiración Espiración - A Gotan Project DJ Set Selected & Mixed by Philippe Cohen Solal (2004). This album is a compilation of classic tangos from the likes of Aníbal Troilo, Ástor Piazzolla and Gotan Project remixes. The album also includes a bonus CD with the track 'La Cruz del Sur' – which was meant to be included on La Revancha del Tango, but did not make the cut in 2001.

In 2006 they released a second studio album called Lunático, and in 2010 Tango 3.0, their last studio album to date.
