Traveling: Argentina

Argentina is big. Huge. Traveling Argentina is like going through a continent, and there's no chance to find a single sound that characterize it. Of course in matter of music Buenos Aires plays the part of the lion and influences the global musical image you can get of the country. So what can we expect from la musica argentina? Pop latino. Most of all. A lot of folk influences by different roots and inheritance, some tango, of course, so hot now all over the world.
Take a look:


This artist plays a modern version of tango with a look to the classics and a jazzy perspective.


Tango, milonga, cumbia, in a urban and modern flow. Simply beautiful.


The real name of Cursi y melancolico is Juan Manuel Godoy. The meaning of the art name says a lot about his music a little "cheap" and much more melancholic. Nice declination of argentinian folk.


The last volume of a trilogy. A melting-pot of different faces, styles, rythms very well mixed. Nice tunes and lyrics from Mar del Plata.
