Tango in Osterley House
Tango in Osterley House
DJ & Organiser: Warren Edwardes
"DJ Warren Edwardes plays silky smooth traditional tango blending energetic 40s Golden Age with romantic 50s Silk Age tunes beyond the plinky plonky squeaky squawky sounds of early recordings.
There will be a slick tsunami alternating rhythmical and lyrical tangos developing from the simple to the complex."
