This selection is signed by my subjectivity.

In that sense, the music from Buenos Aires is, here,

overrepresented in comparison to other provinces. You wont find tango cause for me its a kind of
music that has completed its historical cycle, and folklore, because I dont know about it. Further,
The following list does not necessarily represent my own musical taste, in fact, I mainly listen to
international music, but the next songs, in my opìnion, realize the main veins of Argentine music.

Rock/pop.

Flaco Spinetta playing at The Pink house (Casa de Gobierno Argentina) -

“Seguir Viviendo Sin Tu Amor”

This guy was also the leader of the foundational argentinian band called Pescado Rabioso. Their
most famous album is called “Artaud” in reference to the classical french poet called Antonin
Artaud.

Gustavo Cerati – Puente (1999)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAO7CEcCD3s
This is a hit song. A cool one. And also he has more abstract explorations like:

Gustavo Cerati – Rio Babel (1999)

Really cool sound for its time of appearance.

This guy was also the singer and main-guitarist for Soda Stereo, an Argentinian band that achived
international attention.

Mercedes Sosa y Gustavo cerati – Zona de promesas (2009)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFaXpw_h5IY

Indio Solari – Esa estrella era mi lujo - Live

https://youtu.be/N9Yyb6XH3ho?t=4312

This guy is kinda masses leader for some people. His concerts moves millions of persons, literally.
So should be on the list. He represents some kind of wound of the argentinian psychosocial way of
life. He was the leader of the other major angentinian band called Patricio Rey y Sus Redonditos de
ricota.
Unlike Soda Stereo, this band hardly crossed the argentinian borders.
