DJs

All dancers, all friends...

Alan Spotti Italy

... is a DJ who needs no introduction ;-)

Andreas Wichter Germany/UK

... describes himself like this: [source]

I play traditional tangos, valses and milongas, almost exclusively from the Golden Era. If you want your DJ playing pop songs, don´t hire me. I firmly believe that the tangos of the classic era, played by the dozen or so best orchestras like Di Sarli, Pugliese or Biagi, were the best music ever recorded for tango dancing and have so far never been equalled. I use tandas and cortinas.

I have DJed at milongas and festivals in Germany, France, Luxembourg and the UK.

Lampis Greece/USA

... has been fascinated by tango and continuously tries to expand his understanding of this complex art form. He strongly believes that appropriate music is a critical factor for an emotionally fulfilling evening of dancing and he aims to achieve exactly that with his music selections. He focuses on traditional music that brings the dancers on the dance floor and keeps them there until the very end of the milonga. Lampis is a sought-after DJ and has been invited to festivals and major events from coast to coast in the USA as well as abroad. [p.c.]

Taşkın Deniz Turkey/Germany

Taskin Deniz is from Bursa, Turkey. After living in The Netherlands and Italy for several years, he moved to Freiburg in 2010. He has been dancing tango since 2008 and he started DJing recently. He likes playing classical tangos from 30s and 40s. He is a member of tango community Tango Project Freiburg. [source]

Theo El Greco Greece/Italy

... describes himself like this: [source]

My evenings offer traditional music with tandas and cortinas, from the period between the late twenties to the late fifties. The aim is to create a rhythmic wave for dancers to enjoy, ranging from orchestras, singers, rhythm and period of recording dates. I pay particular attention to what is happening on the dance floor, and adapt the musical selection according to its mood.

I have been a member of the association “Tangofirenze” since the beginning of 2005. Tangofirenze has been organizing milongas two times a month and the Raduno Milonguero once a year in Impruneta (Florence) where I am the resident DJ. Since February 2009 I am also the resident DJ at the milonga “Porto di mare”, and during the weekends I move around to various cities, playing 2 or 3 times a week. I also played in southern France and Turkey. [P.S. And also Slovenia, on Festivalito Rural 2010!]
