Here are some Orquesta Típica Victor (OTV) and Adolfo Carabelli tandas. My favorites are highlighted.

| Buscándote is a beautiful and classic tango. It has such a specific sound that it is difficult to make a tanda with it, but I think this one works very well. It is very slow and Fresedo did not record any other songs in that period at that tempo, so the tempo speeds up through the tanda. | ||||

Canyengue is one of the earliest forms of Tango and was probably the style that was taken over to Paris at the turn of the century. Here is a good demonstration of this style. It is very rhythmic and danced more into the ground than we dance tango today.
