Astillero : Tango de Ruptura

With their album Tango de Ruptura , the septet Astillero attracts our attention with modern , avant garde , tango with all its different and appealing facets : accentuated-dynamic arrangements , some clustered or other strange harmonies here and there , intermixed with elegiac melodies of violin and bandoneon . All songs were written by the Astillero musicians . Six songs were written by Julian Peralta , four by Patricio Bonfiglio , and one by Mariano González Calo .
There are all of the different sides of this genre which makes it so attractive . There is the slow and cautious Marfil , the dynamic Alas por la Mitad and Villagrán , and the fiery and energetic Motobronco . Moreover , you will find the perturbing Capataz with its shouting background choir in the chorus with Peyo Campoliete as a highly emotional singer . The artists on the album are Osiris Rodriguez ( violin ), Pablo Milrud ( cello ), Patricio Bonfiglio ( bandoneón ), Mariano Gonzalez Calo ( bandoneón ), Felix Arcangeli ( contrabass ), Julian Peralta ( piano ) and Peyo Campoliete ( vocals ).
They have all of the trump cardss needed to impress an audience . This ensemble surely will find its place somewhere between the tango nuevo scene and the typical tango orchestras . They are unique enough to be an essential part of the modern tango scene , and take the steps beyond to expand the limits . I definitely would like to hear more from this fascinating ensemble .
