Accompanied by many other Argentine musicians, Lito Vitale plays original music for a Contemporary Ballet, based on an idea by Cristina Castro. Basically, this performance is a type of Fusion-Tango concoction, and makes Tango its principle thematic axis. Tango, as most everybody knows of course, is a musical genre which originated in Argentina, and also vastly helps to establish our country's identity around the world.

This Instrumental quartet was formed back in 1979 in the city of Rosario (province of Santa Fé, Argentina). After a brief lapse during their first incarnation in the eighties, the band got back together again in the year 2000, and finally unveiled their very first album in 2004. The group sticks out especially because of their twin lead guitars, which provide a melodic type of sound consisting of sophisticated, Jazz-orientated cadences within a sonic structure that is primordially centered in Progressive Hard Rock, and with evident influences by the likes of such referential luminaries as Rush, Yes, Led Zeppelin, Jeff Beck, and Crucis.

During the mid-seventies, many Progressive / Symphonic bands started to appear in several Argentine provinces; some of them linked to an independent musical movement led by the legendary MIA. In the province of Mendoza, the iconic representative of the local pack was Altablanca, a group which enjoyed a trajectory of almost eight years amidst different line-ups. This great sonic rescue offered here proves beyond the shadow of any doubt just how talented these lads were, besides their very high musical quality, and shows the symbiosis they shared with the likes of MIA, Redd, Irreal, and Trigémino.

This here is the trio's second output of recordings, through which they continue down the very same path of searching for their ultimate sound amidst a great variety of instruments, principally percussive ones, as already eloquently explored and exposed on the group's first studio outing. There are also other melodious instruments utilized in these grooves, though the Hard sound of the band's guitarrist clearly sets the lads' musical course.

This musical project combines traditional Afro-Latin rhythms with different sub-categories stemming from the Progressive Rock movement, for example Hard Prog; albeit always departing from an eminently percussive musical landscape based on the use of polyrhythms, odd metrics, unisons, and percussion solos.

The outfit continues down the same musical identity and esthetics as their previous album, on this, their new studio effort, which is the lads' fourth album, and one that features a stronger leniency towards Psychedelic Hard Rock than any of their preceding recordings. During certain moments, Fútbol reminds us of Miguel Abuelo et Nada, as well as influences by Jorge Pinchevsky.

Ararat's second album manages to keep the heavy density of their guitars, so typical of the Stoner Rock sound of Los Natas, while also becoming totally immersed into an atmosphere of Psychedelic Ambience, complete with imaginary smoke and all, electric guitar passages, and a piano that permanently keeps the appropriate climaxes going.

One of the most expressive facets of the Argentine seminal and mythical group from the seventies, MIA, was their vocal and chorus arrangements. This new recording re-unites Liliana Vitale and Veronica Condomi, as they combine their voices together again on several improvisational passages, as well as performing songs of an Argentine Folk inclination. On most of the album's tracks, they sing acapella, without any instrumental accompaniment whatsoever.

Together with his band, Generacion Cero, Rodolfo Mederos released two LP's in the mid-seventies. This here is the second of the albums in question, and is widely considered to be one of the best and most successful combinations of Avant Tango and Progressive Rock in history. These recordings feature nice touches of Jazz, as well as clever incursions into Psychedelic territory. This is a purely Instrumental collection, which boasts Rodolfo's virtuous bandoneon playing and the outfit's beautiful and melanchollically atmospheric passages. Outstanding and legendary stuff!
