Sounds Like: We sound like a mixture of all the music we like and don't stick to any genre for too long, but it all comes out sounding like Gran Chaco.We've made our first album The Cube Angle from 2005 available here for a quid. Just click on the link, then select your country and mobile network at the top of the page so the prices become visable. I know it's a little cheeky expecting you to pay, but it covers the VAT and the websites percentage, and if we make any money out of it we're considering ways of giving it back (sorry for sounding like a charity!). Ideas in the pipeline are to maybe create prizes for best reviews/advice on our tracks, or to make multi track versions of our songs available for download and have a remix competition. Think "Yesterdays News" would sound better with a 303 bassline and some trance chords? Send us messages and let us know what you think and any ideas you may have, and join our Gran Chaco Community . If you don't want to part with your cash, three of our latest tunes are currently available for free download on the Myspace player up top. Thanks for reading!! GC
