Tantalizing tango tandas 19 Dj El Monje 30/10/2013 Orcuesta Color Tango/Instrumental

01  Solfeando
02  Pilo
03  Buen Amigo
04  Negracha
05  Chique

Modern rich sound but without ability to aproach the spirit of the songs.  Such kind of tandas are good as warm up tandas, at the beginning of the milonga. They are also good to replace Live Orchestras which i personally hate as they break in 2 pieses the energy of milonga

Tantalizing Tango Tandas 18 Dj El Monje 30/10/2013 Orquesta Osvaldo Pugliese Alberto Moran 1945/54

01 Hoy al Recordarla   Vocalist Alberto Moran  1945
02 Llamame Vocalist Alberto Moran  1950
03 No quiero Perderte Vocalist Alberto Moran  1954
04 Por Pecadora Vocalist Alberto Moran  1952
05 Por que no tengo mas Vocalist Alberto Moran  1954

Every tanda of Pugliese is causing fear but the same time is stimulating dancers. Moran has written some of the beautiful pages in Pugliese s history. Tangueros can be conciderd mature when they can manage to feel comfortable listening and dancing Pugliese. I am dreaming to dance a whole marathon dedicated to Pugliese. At this tanda , drama was never so melodic , and melody was never so lyric.

03) Yo no se porque te quiero  Vocalist Ernesto Famma 1934
04) Donde Vocalist Roberto Maida 1935
05) Poema  Vocalist Roberto Maida 1935

Silvio la Via had told me once that Poema has been stolen from a Greek. Well Greeks believe that all the world belongs to them and somebody very bad has stolen this from them. La Via was probably joking to me. I am asking. is there anybody who dances tango in this world who didn t cry by dancing one of these songs?

This full orchestrated performances of Alberto Di Paulo based on Carlos Di Sarli, as about tempo and melody are proper for the beginning of a milonga to encourage the dancers to start, especially the beginners and fmiiarize them firmly to the mood. This tanda is also good for practicas as it s flat been compared to Carlos di Sarli performances.

distant love I left,
want you to know, heart,
I have never forgotten.

         Good night!

 

Tantalizing Tango Tanda 08 Dj El Monje 18/10/2013 Orquesta Leopoldo Federico /Hector Maure 1973/74

01    Cafetin de Buenos Aires Vocalist Hector Maure  1974
02    Corrientes y Esmeralda   Vocalist Hector Maure  1974
03    Caminito  Vocalist Hector Maure  1973
04    El Vino Triste Vocalist Hector Maure  1974

This tanda belongs to a category of tandas that every Dj must have in his collection in order to avoid to consume his precious tandas playing them every time. If it was a clothe it could be characterized as a very good casual Levis 501 ,I say this just because the necessity of success leads Djs to play frequently the super tango rhythmic hits and the treasure, the real treasure of tango music is hired because of this. Europeans and Americans have placed into their boxes the tango and they support hits instead of being pioneers introducing forgotten orchestras, or taking he risk of failure playing all the spectrum of tango in milongas. I have been bored to listen the same orchestras and the same rhythmic songs with different order in milongas. This music for instance is marvellous Maure has given everything with his mature performance, but i have never listen this kind of casual tandas in milongas just because every DJ is afraid to risk. This is the reason that this tanda has been characterized as casual. I hope at the future to transform milongas in casual milongas where anybody could be able to play and dance everything which belongs to the category of tango music.

Tantalizing Tango Tanda 07 Dj El Monje 17/10/2013 Ladies are singing Tango Mixed Orchestras

01) Orquesta Argentino Galvan Vocalist Maria de La Fuente 1949.
02) El Patio de la Morocha, Orquesta Argentino Galvan, Vocalist Virginia Luque 1952
03) Tristeza Marina,Orquesta Mario Maurano, Vocalist Libertad Lamarque 1943
04) Uno.Orquesta Mario Maurano, Vocalist Libertad Lamarque 1943

This tanda is real difficult just because it doesn t have anything else to offer than emotion. It s like saying i dont have money but i have all the gold of the world!! Its quite difficult to be danced because extracting emotion without all the other helping elements of tango is the most difficult issue as the most teachers referred to this in theory but they teach steps in action confusing students. You have to be old to dance this tanda, or mature. It s easier when you have suffered a lot. Or drunk!! Its easy to get drunk in tango after a lot of tandas with rhythm melody and drama wisely selected as it has to do with timing. Then this kind of tandas should follow , just before cumparsita. This is the most proper time that all dancers thet theyknow what tango is are expecting in a milonga!

Well the truth is that this tanda is causing stress to the dancers. It s quite unfair to say that cant be danceable.For my opinion a couple focused in connection can dance and enjoy everything, especially if this is the marvellous music of late Pugliese. Don t be imprisoned  to the tempo don t be imprisoned to stereotypes , just let the stress of success out of the milonga

2) Flores Negras  Instrumental      1952
3) Selection de Carlos Gardel  Roberto Medina      1949
4) Sueno Azul  Instrumental          1951

Overdose of melody and lyricism. Dancing this tanda is like walking slowly barefood in a field of flowers. Roberto Medina with his voice reminds you that you are in a milonga interrupting  pleasantly the instrumental dream.

2) La Loca d Amor   Teofilo Ibanez  1938

Tantalizing Tango Tandas 01 Dj El Monje13/10/2013 Orquesta Tipica Victor1929/1944 Tango

01) Recuerdo        /Vocalist Roberto Diaz             1930
02) Una Vez         /Ortega de Cerro                      1943
03) Huela Buey     /Vocalists    Juan Carlos Delson, Roberto Diaz       1929
04) Nunca tuvo novio      /Vocalist   Carlos Lafuente          1930
05) Anoche A Las Cuatro  /Vocalist Osvaldo Ribo        

Rhythm style and mood from all periods od Orquesta Typica Victor. I lke this tanda even if it s not the most formal of this orquestra because it combines everything and its quite difficult to be developed, as the most common is to combine songs from the same period. But the result is pleasing the dancer and doen not permit him to be bored!!!!!
