Tangokombinat DJs

The Tangokombinat DJs present the best traditional tango music in tandas and with cortinas. We have been working for many years at local milongas, encuentros and at festivals. 

Our philosophy: We play music for social dancers.

We are no artists who constantly have to re-invent themselves or history professors who need to find the most obscure and forgotten tangos. As social dancers we choose music that is 100% danceable and inspiring. The harmony of all dancers in the ronda and with the music is in our ultimate goal. This is why we focus on popular orchestras and tunes from the late 20s to the late 50s. This is the era when the orchestras actually performed and recorded for dancers and not for a seated audience or tango shows. 

We also believe in well-balanced sets with equally rhythmical and lyrical components. A little drama is of course also important, but we do not want to create a non-stop-high-energy mood. Even when the dance level is advanced, we will not shun easy-going music. Experienced dancers as well love dancing to the sweet songs of Canaro, OTV or the likes.

We care about sound quality and use high quality audio files as well as appropriate equipment. At our international events we install professional Tannoy speakers that allow the dancers to delve into the music.

Please contact us, if you are interested in inviting us to dj at your event.
