Im not like IN LOVE with gotan, but i DO like the modern latin sound. I really, really liked senor coconuts "El Baile Aleman" but it seems too obscure. I also like Astor Piazzola. im not too experiences with latin music.

I listened to Buena Vista Social Club and found it a bit too tame and typical - to folkish or something. Id like something kinda quirky. Something interesting.

Tanghetto

Emigrante (electrotango) is the debut album by Buenos Aires-based electronic neo-tango band Tanghetto. The album was released in 2003, reaching gold sales in early 2005. In 2004 Emigrante (electrotango) was nominated for a Latin Grammy Award.

Although it is instrumental, there is an underlying concept through the album: how Argentina, historically a country of immigrants, became a country of emigrating people.

The music of Emigrante is a balance between the electronically generated sounds and acoustic instruments (bandoneón, piano, and guitar). The album was produced by Max Masri and coproduced by Diego S. Veláquez. - Wikipedia

I think the OP is long gone, but there's a great tango comp in the "Think Global" series released by the UK famine-relief organization Oxfam. Has both rustic and techno Argentine stuff:

Think Global: Tango


Pssst: "Volume 1" of their "bellydance music" comps is fantastic also.
