The Tangokombinat DJs play traditional tango music at local milongas, encuentros, and festivals – some for more than 20 years. We present carefully balanced set with cortinas, combining rhythmical, lyrical and some more dramatic tandas.
As social dancers, we play for social dancers – not to reinvent ourselves or uncover the most obscure recordings. Our priority is inspiring, 100% danceable music that creates harmony between the ronda and the DJ. We therefore focus on popular orchestras and songs from the late 1920s to the late 1950s – an era when tango was performed and recorded for dancers rather than seated audiences or stage shows.
Sound quality matters to us. We use high-quality audio files and suitable equipment; at our international events, professional Tannoy speakers allow dancers to immerse themselves fully in the music.
Please contact us, if you are interested in inviting us to dj at your event.

Guardia Nueva: DJ Debuts in 2026
These remarkable individuals have participated in Detlef & Melina’s Teacher Training 2026 and Melina’s DJ seminars. Most have already gained their first DJing experience at prácticas and tango holidays, but this year marks their official debut as we begin a new chapter at tkRaum.
Please note that all our new team members are double rolers and have therefore an extra bonus when it comes to musical understanding.
