Electrocutango

Electrocutango

Electrocutango is an electrotango project founded by Sverre Indris Joner, based in Oslo, Norway. Their album Felino was originally music created for "TanGhost", a tango/theater performance based on Henrik Ibsen's play Ghosts, directed by Per-Olav Sørensen (2004). The show was choreographed by famous Argentinian tango dancer Pablo Verón, who also acted in the performance. The music was awarded the prestigious Norwegian Edvard Award for "Best Music composed to stage/film/other artforms" in 2005. In 2006, the performance toured theaters worldwide, visiting Dramaten in Stockholm, Ivan Vazov National Theatre in Bulgaria, and also theaters in Prague, Helsinki, The Faeroe Islands, Shanghai and Beijing.

Their music is today used in tango clubs worldwide, and is popular with dancers who like neo-tango music like Tanghetto, Gotan Project, and Bajofondo Tango Club.

The project members include famous tango musicians Per Arne Glorvigen: bandoneón on tracks "Victoriosa" and "A Fuego Violento", and Julia Zenko: voice on "Renacere" and "Sin Piel".
