Electrocutango

Electrocutango - by many considered one of the the most dynamic, innovative and original expressions of the new electro-tango movement. The sound is identified as tango with an update rather than electronica with “exotic seasoning”. The music has a distinct identity based on tanguero musicianship and with an original approach to fusions with anything from Puerto Rico, Brazil, RnB, DnB, jazz or contemporary music. Its a hit in Buenos Aires even though its from Norway . The European tango-festivals as well as milongas and clubs gave their CD “Felino” a warm welcome and is already considered a classic within the electronic tango genre. Electrocutango released its second CD ”Adrenalina” in Buenos Aires 2011, and as a result bandleader Joner was given the title ”Academico correspondiente” from the Argentine National Tango-Academy by none less than tango-poet Horacio Ferrer. Behind Electrocutango is the norwegian pianist and composer/arranger Sverre Indris Joner. He early began to play and compose music with emphasis on the latin genres. He writes for ballet, theatre, orchestra, film and has also composed and arranged numerous tangos and other latin genres for symphony orchestra performing as a soloist. homepage http://www.sverreindrisjoner.com/electrocutango/
