Roger Hunt:
'Great new sound - a must have for 2003. Just keep playing their CD.'

'I think they were the most exciting world music sound of 2002. I was introduced to this by some French people who were working in Devon in the summer. Gotan Project had an instant appeal to all of my friends in Oxford who rushed out to buy this superbly produced and atmospheric sound which has brought Tango and French traditional music to the fore.'
Lucie Pemberton, Bristol:
'A really exciting band that make their performances a real event. Beautiful, funky and extremely sexy sounds.'
