“Tango 3.0 has refined all the founding elements of what makes the Gotan Project the wondrous thing that it is” – Gilles Peterson

Having sold out London’s Brixton Academy back in May, Gotan Project return to headline East End venue The Troxy on October 25th. Although Gotan Project never planned to become a touring outfit when they first began blending programmed beats with traditional tango music back in the late ’90s, they have gone on to tour the world countless times, playing over 500 concerts in support of their three studio albums. The band have played everywhere from Russia to Australia. For the live show in support of their latest album, ‘Tango 3.0′, Gotan Project have replaced their light suits with dark pinstripes, the grand piano has changed from white to black, and the mood of the show has transformed with it

Support at The Troxy comes from El Hijo De La Cumbia, one of the most successful DJs and producers to emerge from the Nueva or Digital Cumbia scene of Buenos Aires. The Nueva Cumbia sound blends the traditional Colombian cumbia rhythm with elements of dancehall, reggaeton, hip hop and dubstep. While Gotan Project update the traditional tango and make it relevant for the electronic dancefloor, El Hijo represents the new breed of Argentinean clubber. This is a rare opportunity to catch El Hijo in the UK.

In addition to this, Gotan Project are pleased to announce the release of the Tango 3.0 Remix EP on October 25th. Various tracks from the album have been re-interpreted by a wide-ranging selection of producers. El Remolón and Lagartijeando, both recording artists on Buenos Aires’ ZZK Records, have remixed ‘La Gloria’ and ‘Peligro’ respectively, adding the Nueva Cumbia sound to Gotan Projects tango. Daniel Haaksman bridges the gap between Latin America and Europe with his cumbia-reggaeton via Berlin take on ‘Rayuela’. His label, Man Recordings have also turned in a sultrydisco remix of the same track.

British production duo, The Count and Sinden, long time fans of Gotan Project, turn in an instantly danceable remix of ‘De Hombre A Hombre’. German remixer Âme takes the pizzicato of the bass of ‘De Hombre A Hombre’ to build a beautifully deep techno track, while Swiss producer Michel Cleis delivers a infectious dub loaded with cowbells which uses the haunting horns of ‘Panamericana’ to brilliant effect.

Tango 3.0 Remix EP:

1. De Hombre A Hombre (Count and Sinden Caravan of Courage Remix)
2. Rayuela (Daniel Haaksman Remix)
3. Panamericana (Michel Cleis Remix)
4. La Gloria (El Remolón Remix)
5. Rayuela (Man Recordings Disco Mix)
6. De Hombre A Hombre (Âme Remix)
7. Peligro (Lagartijeando Remix)
