Focusing on the newer generation of the Tango Nuevo scene (that is, the current one fueled by the Piazzolla-era masters to some degree, but comprised of new performers), this installment in the Rough Guide series provides looks at the classic past of the genre as well as iconoclastic attacks on the tango. From the Piazzolla covers of Quinteto la Camorra to the techno-dancehall of Carlos Libedinsky, the artists cover the spectrum of tradition. From the soft guitar strumming of the Trio Gorosito Cataldi de la Vega trio to the more vicious rock inflections of Juan Carlos Caceres, the spectrum of energy is covered. Jazz has its influence heard clearly throughout, with selections from around the genre, and even the old generation is represented with a short duet between Roberto Goyeneche and his protégé Adriana Varela. The album is a nice addition for those who are already acquainted with the first waves of the Tango Nuevo movement, but for those that have yet to pick up the Piazzolla's, the Goyeneche's, or the Troilo's, those should be the first stop rather than the fusions built upon their legacy. ~ Adam Greenberg, Rovi
