Considered as the Argentine "Mod" group par excellence back in the sixties, their sound had an uncanny similarity with English groups of the time, such as The Kinks and The Rolling Stones. With all their songs sung in English and with very good vocal arrangements, the album features a couple of the band's own tracks and a great quantity of covers. They reached considerable success with their own version of Them's classic, "Gloria". This CD includes several bonus tracks.

At the end of 1974, the group entered the studio to record "Triángulo", their fifth LP. This time, Daniel Eduardo "Fanta" Beaudoux on bass and Eduardo Garbagnati on drums, appear in the band's lineup. This is a thoroughly Experimental album, which reflects a Heavy European style, and totally dissimilar to everything and anything that the group had produced in the past.

This was the fifth album by acclaimed Argentine Folk Rock / Prog Rock twosome Pastoral. It includes compositions that vary between acoustic and electric passages, all the time accompanied by numerous and prestigious guest musicians. In certain aspects and during specific moments, this record reminds us of the first contemporary album by the Argentine band, Canturbe.

Following on from their self-titled debut album, the duo released “En el hospicio”, their classic Folk Rock / Progressive Rock album, which soon garnered massive popular recognition. Here they combined their guitars and voices with dark and surreal themes in the songs’ lyrics, recreating melancholic atmospheres.

One year on after their very successful “En el hospicio” album, Erausquin and De Michele introduced a more elaborate record consisting of nine songs. With a larger instrumentation variety and more refined compositions, the string arrangements, as well as the input by essential guest musicians, really stand out, thus raising the duet’s music to a whole other level.

Leaving behind the acoustic duo format, in constant evolution towards a more hermetic and complex concept, they took on the idea of a band with quality instrumental richness in their music, which included synthesizers, wind instruments; even bagpipes, and accompanied by outstanding musicians of renown.

Beginning their musical career in a somewhat stripped-down and austere manner, Alejandro De Michele and Miguel Ángel Erausquin formed an Acoustic Folk duet with challenging and Avant-Garde characteristics, including an ostensibly raw and almost heartbreaking sound, which was based on the Dark and Surreal poetry of their songs.

Hailing all the way from La Plaata, the capital city of the province of Buenos Aires, comes this potent Stoner Rock / Psychedelia / Doom (albeit a softer, more Experimental treatment) Power Trio. Their compositions are sung almost entirely in Spanish, and the outfit's influences can be effortlessly traced back to Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath and Jimi Hendrix.

This here is a collage of sound, images and words, where the tradition of dialogue revives between the Contemporary Jazz Music of Luis Nacht, the Literature of writer Ricardo Piglia and the Fine Arts of illustrator Eduardo Stupía. Together they have managed to break through artistic frontiers, in order to re-create a common denominator-type of multiple, playful and original production.

The threesome formed by Daniel "Pipi" Piazzolla (drums), Damián Fogiel (saxophones) and Lucio Balduini (electric guitar) introduces us to their second album of Jazz Fusion. The ensuing sound on this record has been the result of experimenting with metrics and harmonics, as well as naturally and fluently keeping the melodic side of their repertoire constantly afloat.

Reaffirming the consolidation of a musical aesthetic based on melodic and rhythmic counterpoints, via which all musicians keep a heterogeneous communion, their 3rd album manifests the current Argentine Jazz situation, where guitar & sax melodic scales prevail, upheld by the drummer’s trademark rhythm.
