🎈 Cristianel from Italien/ZH

Inspired by the facets of tango and after 8 years of dancing experience, Christianel had his first gig as tango DJ in 2014 in his home in Northern Italy. Since then, he has been happy to DJ at many regional and international events and marathons.
Always seeking to create the “perfect wave”, he plays music from the Golden Era as well as particularly beautiful songs of the 50s to 80s. He loves to spend his time at the DJ booth in a busy and concentrated manner: selecting the songs to correspond with the atmosphere of the dance floor and intensifying it by continuously refining the sound of the music. “Achieving this”, he says, “is very near to my heart.”

🎈 Piu from Gießen

Piu discovered DJing 7 years ago and has since then traveled local milongas as well as marathons and festivals. About a week ago he even celebrated his 100th gig! Inspired by the atmosphere of every new event, he plays very rich and diverse music. He loves the variations tango has to offer, and exploits them to the maximum to craft sets ranging from the powerful, dramatic to the gentle and soulful. He particularly enjoys seeing the harmonious interaction of the dancers: “I love to contribute to people’s happiness. I can really share their joy!”

 🎈 Andreas Gierstorfer from Berlin

Andreas has years of experience as tango DJ, playing at Encuentros, El Corte in Nijmegen, and various role changing weekends, to name but a few events. He prefers music from the Golden Era, but also plays beautiful tandas from the 1930s to 50s. Furthermore, he will pamper us with wonderful modern and alternative songs. With his self-ascribed weakness for beautiful melodies he will take care of creating a special atmosphere on the dancefloor: “As a DJ, I want to enchant the dancers, so that the entire room becomes one with the music. Every set is a new and unique challenge!”

 🎈 Holger from Gießen

Holger puts the dancers first. Already at his start as TDJ 10 years ago he was driven by the wish to play more genuinely touching music at local milongas. He loves the orchestras D’Arienzo, Fresedo, Rodriguez and Laurenz, but tries to integrate all the well known orchestras of the Epoca de Oro with one tanda at his gigs. He counts on energetic, powerful tandas as much as he likes to play beautiful „Neos“ and „Nontangos“. Always taking the dancers’ perspective, he only plays songs which “would inspire his own feet”. Holger’s Soul/Disco/Jazz-Cortinas are giving the wonderful atmosphere he creates the finishing touch. If he sees that they enthuse the dance floor, he may even play them to the end!

 🎈 Steffi from Karlsruhe

Steffi plays regular gigs in the Rhein-Neckar area and dances both roles with enthusiasm. She loves the diversity offered by the tango of the Guardia Vieja up to the 1960s and taps into its full potential to create her playful, diverse tandas. The selection of finest pieces from her extensive collection of nontango music adds the icing on the cake of her sets. With her keen sense for the gentle and soft she creates a dancefloor full of atmosphere. Her music already inspired us last year, and we are very happy to welcome her again at Oro 2019!
