I do use Spotify and you're welcome to stalk me on it but I don't really listen to local music on it, frankly. Right now I'm super into The Holophonics.

Has to be better than what Spotify has on its own. I'm beginning to think that Rumbai is the Official Band of Argentina, which really bugs me because OMFGJFC they have so many rythym issues.

Perhaps off topic but I wish cellphone service providers in Canada made unlimited plans available - then I could just grab Spotify Premium. As it stands it's a no-go.

I have 10 gigs of data a month and barely use any of it on Spotify, even listening constantly. (No, really, ask @somasatori. I needs mah music.) But with Premium you can also make your playlists available offline, so no data usage.

Honestly, I'm not sure the current mainstream Argentine scene is any good at all.

I would suggest looking up Los Piojos, Patricio Rey & Sus Redonditos de Ricota, La Vela Puerca--

In the seventies and eighties, Charly Garcia and Luis Alberto Spinetta (who collaborated in one band and then had others before they both went solo) were the shit. Charly can sometimes be a little more pop, but all his music is awesome (un his album "Say No More" which I found boring as fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu).

Look up Spinetta Jade or Pescado Rabioso. Also Almendra. Those are all Spinetta bands.

Parte de la Religion es probably my favorite Charly Garcia album, but Piano Bar and Clics Modernos are both really up there, too.

Let me know what you think.
