	Malambo - Argentine Music
		These steps are performed with background music, usually a guitar and a drum, and the music takes no precedence to the dance.
		Before musical instruments were developed it was our own hand and feet that were performing sounds and rythm that put together, lead to music.
		Thus, the malambo dancer becomes his own instrument as he performs music rythmically with his lower body in unison to whatever is being payed in a guitar and drum next to him.

	Argentina Music
		With the obvious exception of tango, the music of Argentina has a fairly low international profile.
		Within Latin America, however, Argentina is famed for its rock music, known simply as "rock nacional" - a term which embraces a pretty ecletic bunch of groups and musicians from the heavy rock of Pappo, through the sweet poppy rock of Fito Páez to the ska and punk influenced Los Fabulosos Cadillacs.
		Folk music, known as "folklore" in Argentina, is popular throughout the country and provides a predominantly rural counterpoint to the essentially urban tango.

	Tango history. tango singers. tango dancers . tango musicians .
		The birth of tango took place towards mid-19th century, with the formation of dwelling conglomerates around the young city of Buenos Aires.
		Due to this impossibility of understanding by other audiences, the diffusion of tango was difficult and was basically approached through dance, which was earlier than tango itself in its most characteristic musical format (let alone sung tango, which arrived much later).
		Somebody said: -Tango is something else than a soft wave turned into music, it is the deepest dance in the world -, and he who spoke these words was not Argentine.

		It is a region of rainforests and waterfalls, and a land marked by a large wave of nineteenth-century immigrants from Europe.
		This form of mestizo music was largely contained in the Corrientes region (in the northeast of Argentina) until the 1950s, when a large number of migrants arrived in Buenos Aires looking for work, and in the process brought this wild and energetic accordion-driven music to urban dance halls.

	Rough Guide to the Music of Argentina reviews and ratings at MSN Shopping
		Some straightforward folksinging from the powerful voice of Lorena Astudillo marks the first departure from the main focus here, but the sound turns quickly enough back to the tango, with a surprisingly capable rendition on the harmonica.
		Juan Carlos Caceres updates the sound with a little more rhythm, and two of the brightest lights in instrumental music are presented in sequence, with Osbaldo Piro's emotive bandoneon playing and Roberto Grela's excellent guitar work, both former members of Anibal Troilo's legendary bands.
		Walter Rios performs the heaviest, strangest rendition of "La Cumparsita" you're ever likely to hear, followed immediately by another updating of sorts, with the addition of salsa piano riffing to the basics of milonga song.

		The tango pioneers of the past are also celebrated throughout the disc, from legendary crooner Carlos Gardel ("Tortazos") and bandoneon wizard Anibal Troilo ("El Motivo") to the genre's melancholy innovator Astor Piazzolla (a tense, slightly neurotic live version of "Verano Porteno").
		A pity that Argentina's substantial contribution to the rock en espanol genre is altogether absent from this otherwise excellent compilation.
		There are actually other beautiful and haunting styles of music like the upbeat milonga (similar to the tango, but with a musical resolution unlike the "frustrated" final note associated with tango) and ballads.
