I haven't heard anything new yet which reflects what a real tango
can make you feel. The dance of today has adapted itself to that
kind of music referred to as electronic tango, and it doesn't fall
into the same category as a Pugliese or a Troilo.
The tango was hidden for almost 30 years and that is the emptiness
which is present today in the tango. There are people who have 60
or 70 years of age, and now there are those who are 30 years old,
which is saying that there is a 20 year gap within the tango, because
there aren't really that many people in their 40's and 50's in the
milongas.
I believe that that same thing occurred in the music, there was
Piazzola and then there was a jump to Gotan Project, directly to
Narcotango, and there hasn't been a musical process that has accompanied
the dance through its evolution. The music hasn't evolved, it jumped
and skipped a very important of the creativity that is happening
in the dance, which continues to grow and evolve creatively.
