Tango revivalist ten-piece ensemble
Orquesta Tipica Misteriosa Buenos Aires have taken up the grand tradition of this dance (which peaked in the 1940's and, with a few
Gotan Project-style exceptions, has been in decline ever since) and are carrying its flag forward - new compositions as well as traditional arrangements feature in their repertoire, and the sound formed by their bandoneons, violins, piano, bass and vocals sounds both big enough to rival soundsystems and fresh enough to merit attention.
