Hybrid Tango II is the first studio album by Tanghetto featuring vocals ("No me rindo" and "Aires de Buenos Aires" are performed by Tabaré Leyton while Max Masri himself sings a cover version of "Vuelvo al Sur").[1]

Hybrid Tango II is "an experiment in which Tanghetto tried to recreate -in the present day context- the influences brought by immigrants more than a hundred years ago, bringing an embryo of tango to life. In the musical 'conventillo' of today, the sounds are very different, and thus also the result."[2]

In 2014, the album was nominated for a Latin Grammy Award.[3]
