ELECTROCUTANGO is considered on of 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 even a hit in Buenos Aires even though its from Norway …!
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 arranged numerous tangos and other latin genres for symphony orchestra performing as a solist. While playing in Academia Nacional del Tango in Buenos Aires bandleader Joner received the honorary title as Academic member by Horacio Ferrer.
He is also founder of the quartet Tango For 3 (at Basel OsterTango 2009).
Unlike traditional tango the improvisation is a central element in ELECTROCUTANGOs music. And different from most electronic tangos ELECTROCUTANGOis basicly tanguero fusioned with all the rest – not the other way around… And when a lot of fun and unexpected fusions are thrown on top that makes it a real ball! And not surprisingly – the tango-dancers takes the challenge!

From 21.45 ELECTROCUTANGO will play for dancing,
around 23.15 DJ Marie A. Woutaz will take over.
Midnight, Joachim Dietiker and Michelle Marsidi dance for us.
