TDJs of Locura Tanguera 2025

Beata Darkiwicz – Sopot (PL)

Beata Darkowicz, known to many as Beba, pours her passion into DJing—an art that grew out of her love for music and dance. Her sets blend flowing, lyrical melodies with bursts of energy that can light up the entire dancefloor. For her, music and movement are tools for telling stories without words, where rhythm and sound speak through emotion. She loves watching people on the dancefloor and draws inspiration from their movements to her music. What brings her the most joy is seeing dancers smile and feeling the shared vibe of a great night out.

Yoga Magdalena – Dortmund (D)

Magdalena is an experienced international tango DJ with great musical knowledge. Her soft, positive personality and influence from all musical styles make her performances always balanced and complete. Her tango is above all romantic and based on deep feelings. Sweetness, finesse and charm are interspersed with a strong expression of drama and musicality. Magda has an exceptional ability to maintain a high level when she plays and delights all music lovers! She always surprises with style and harmony.

Vlado Stolár – Bratislava (SK)

I am a DJ and instructor for whom music is the heart of every milonga and every class. My passion for music was born in my teenage years, when I played as a DJ at high-school parties. Since then, I’ve been fascinated by how the right selection of songs can create a unique atmosphere and bring people together on the dance floor.

As a DJ, I make sure that the songs harmonize not only within a single tanda but also with the overall flow of the evening. My goal is to create a natural and seamless musical arc that guides dancers through energy, softness, and emotion. I am especially drawn to the music of the Golden Age, which carries elegance, passion, and a timeless character.

I teach tango and DJ at milongas with great joy. I believe that tango is a dialogue—between partners and between the music and the dance—and I am grateful to be a part of it.

Marcin Darkowicz – Sopot (PL)

Marcin proponuje repertuar muzyczny, który jest zgodny z jego osobistymi preferencjami. Uważa, że każda tanda powinna być spójna pod względem nastroju i zajmować swoje miejsce w całości. W jego odczuciu, podobnie jak emocje narastają i opadają, tandy powinny stopniowo budować atmosferę, gdyż zmiany te tworzą zamkniętą narrację każdej imprezy, proponuje więc kalejdoskop różnorodnych doznań muzycznych, obejmujących tanga wolne, szybkie, radosne, nostalgiczne, rytmiczne oraz liryczne.

Dodatkowo ceni sobie komfort obcowania z muzyką wysokiej jakości i poszukuje nowych inspiracji muzycznych.

Myszko – Warszawa (PL)

Myszko – Tango Vagabond – likes to experiment with tango music and tango styles. He believes that tango has many dimensions. So does tango music. He loves both late “Golden Age” orchestras and good “tango-fire” modern alternatives, but also the “pub” sound of bands from the 1920s. Tango – it’s diversity – and it’s beautiful.

La Estrella – Pszów (PL)

A life without music is like a sky without stars. La Estrella can’t imagine a milonga without at least one tanda by Pugliese or his contemporary worthy successors, such as Fabio Hager Sexteto. In doing so, she does not limit herself to traditional tango, eagerly reaching for nuevo or alternative. When choosing tandas, she tries to make sure everyone finds the sounds that are most beautiful to them, and she creates the mood on the dance floor in real time. The ideal dance is when the body becomes the instrument through which the music expresses itself in a multi-dimensional space, often to the point of fainting from ecstasy

Andrzej Mantaj – Bydgoszcz (PL)

I don’t like scratchy music. I attach great importance to good quality music. I prefer tango played live, so that’s the atmosphere I try to create at the milonga. The music at the 1930s milongas didn’t crackle, the orchestras and their instruments sounded so good that it’s hard for me to convey their sound. It’s not the age or style of the music that inspires us to dance, but the energy it contains. I like the changing rhythm, the multi-layered nature of the pieces, the contrasting interpretations, the tension, the pauses and the dynamic highlights.

El Buzo – Malmö (SE)

My love for tango radiates through in the music I select. This passion likely drives me to keep exploring new and old tracks, always finding the perfect tanda to keep dancers inspired. My knowledge of tango music is expanding, from classic to contemporary, which enables me to craft sets that resonate with the crowd. I am said to have a knack for reading the room and sensing the emotional pulse of the dancers. It helps to pick tracks that can elevate the energy when it dips or calm things down when it’s too high. I always try to maintain the perfect balance. Top-notch sound quality is not to be compromised. I’m always well-prepared, punctual, and ready to create a fantastic atmosphere.
