I took my first tango steps in London in 2015 and very quickly started travelling to tango events around Europe and beyond. Music always came first however, and DJing felt like a natural next step - a new, but equally rich and creative experience of tango. As a DJ, I aim to connect to the dancers and become part of the dancefloor. In my music selection, I try to touch every emotion and feeling, so the dancers leave the milonga feeling full and complete, like nothing was missing! I love Golden Age tracks (Troilo & D'Arienzo fan girl) and keep them as the core of my set, but depending on the time of day or night I enjoy sprinkling them with special pieces, like newer arrangements or some beloved oldies. Oh, and I'm a geek for Cortinas...

Sabri Güleç first started dancing tango in 2008 and later in 2010, he became so fascinated by tango music and found himself surrounded by endless world of these beautiful tunes and people who introduced him to those songs.
Thus, his journey of becoming a tango DJ has started.
He began to give performances on a regular basis at local milongas in Istanbul. Along with this, he had a chance to play and gain international experience in Marseille (France) , Malmö (Sweden) , Warsaw (Poland) , Lesvos (Greece) , Prague (Czechia) , Florence and Napoli (Italy) , Varna (Bulgaria) , Plovdiv (Bulgaria) , Dubai (U.A.E.) and Beirut (Lebanon)
He also had the pleasure of sharing his tandas at world-renowned festivals and marathons in Turkey at several cities.
He is more motivated each and every day by his never ending research and studies of archives in tango music. He is a big fan of golden age however he believes that the last word always belongs to dancers on the floor.
What I love while dancing tango is that I can be myself, ready to exchange thoughts, feelings or even aura. It may sometimes feel like being exposed but only in a totally safe way. The best part of dancing tango is the interaction between the couple on the dance floor, and the way we communicate during the tanda. This interaction is what I am looking for, while DJ-ing behind the decks, but in this case the interaction comes between me and all the dancers.
What I am trying and challenging myself is to capture moments, signs, expressions of the dancers, or even if it’s possible, feel the energy on the dance floor so I can harmonize it with the next tanda.
Last but not least, I have plenty of tango songs to share that deserve to be heard, and wait to be danced, and I wonder how they could be interpreted through the art of dance. My preferences both as a DJ and as Dancer is on the Golden Age. Favorite orchestras: Biagi, Donato, Troilo, Pugliese, D’Arienzo……!
Hello everyone! My name is Stefano Lopes and my passion for tango was born 17 years ago.
First organizer of events (the most important is the "Cannoli Ospitanti" in Sicily with two dear friends) and for 9 years I have been enjoying music a lot on the console. I like to alternate rythm and melody, to feel the energy growing on the track to create the "buena onda" effect. I love traditional tango, even if I don't mind a few excursions in modern orchestras. I always try to establish a feeling with the dancers and win their trust!
"I love your energy" this is the best comment that i get when i dj.Started djing in Athens local practicas and milongas in 2013 and since then i've been djing around Greece and Europe for tango events. I try to keep the energy flowing and love watching the smile on people's faces while dancing!! I love playing tandas from the late 30's to early 50's of traditional recordings!! See you on the dancefloor!!!
