Colored lights blur through a rain-splattered windshield. The heat of the tropical storm rises from the road as a car weaves through the city traffic. A solitary woman stands in a ring of fire. Horses run feverishly around the track at the hippodrome. We are in constant motion. No words. No story. Just floating freely. All that matters is feeling, hearing, seeing. This sensation is "La Revancha del Tango Live".
After notching up over 200 concerts around the world, the Gotan Project live-show is a total sonic and visual experience. It seduces audiences by projecting vast images onto an enormous screen veiling the stage in front of acoustic musicians playing alongside machines. Midway through the concert the veil drops and the musicians are finally revealed, the crowd screams as if they had just witnessed the final act of a torrid striptease.
Prisca Lobjoy, art director and video artist for Gotan Project's ¡Yabasta! Label, created all the video performances screened during this amazing live-show and saw a film of the actual live event as the logical next step.
The film was shot in December 2003 at the Forum, in London, during the La Revancha del Tango tour, then intercut with archival and original contemporary film footage. The intuitive edit is guided by the sensual rhythm of Tango. The exploration of the relationship between image and music sweeps the viewer away and makes Prisca's film so much more than a mere concert recording.
Gotan Project came into being in Paris when Argentinian musicians joined forces with European electro wizards to create an innovative music that has developed into a genuine movement around the world, even in Argentina, the home of Tango.
awesome, what can I say.
Have loved the album for years now and it still owns me and am sad I missed the concerts
for the noobs, its a mix of tango/ latin/ jazz and electronica
