Review: D'Arienzo en el Corazón
Listen, who is making so convincing an impression of Juan D'Arienzo here? Well, that would be Los Herederos del Compás and they just made a Bandcamp release of their 2018 album, D'Arienzo en el Corazón.

Today's music is a first release by a new formation of Pablo Montanelli (piano) and Alfredo Piro (guitar, voice) - Tangótico.
Oh my! I've lost hope I'd see another tango release until the end of this God-forsaken year, and here comes Romantica Milonguera to cheer me up! Let's have a listen.
2020 has not been conductive to making new tango recordings, and so it happens that the Cachivaches appear here again after a while, because they did, in fact, release a new album in early October - Anti Cuerpos.
I have wanted to write about Alex Krebs' tango projects in the past, and never had a good excuse until now. It feel a bit odd to write about releases made 10 or more years ago. Fortunately, the Bandcamp re-release gave me a good excuse, and here you have it.
I feel compelled to come clean and admit that I've re-joined the tango community and have thereby reversed my prior decision not to.
I take a look at the recent album by the Cachivaches, Tiempos Extraños, and find it very enjoyable.
I give a mixed review to the album Reinventango by Tanghetto, which is by all indications a solid collection of neo-tango music, with only some of them having a detectable dancing appeal.
I bring you the orchestra of Enrique Francini with his Majesty, Alberto Podestá.
Prague is opening up, and with it the tango scene. I am staying home. Why? Nothing has changed, not really.
