This weeks alternative tanda is a collection of electronic tangos by Tango Jointz. Interesting songs.. a little bluesy... The last one is a technically a milonga, but it is so slow that it is possible to dance tango to it. It is also has Hugo Diaz playing harmonica mixed into it.

This weeks alternative tanda is a collection of electronic tangos by Metrotango. These are from an album called Gardel Remixed. They have taken old Gardel songs and added electronic beats over them. What I like about these songs is that they did not over do it and have preserved the feeling and sound of the old songs, but with a beat for dancing.

This weeks tanda is a collection of electronic tangos by Bajofondo Tango Club. Bajofondo is one of the most consistently good electronic tango groups. This is a downtempo set of very beautiful songs. The first song, "Centroja," has been shortened to make it better for dancing. We recently did a class demo to "Forma" which can be viewed below.

| Listen to this Tanda I like "Reflejo de Luna" a lot, but it is hard to fit into a tanda. I think this one works pretty well. |

| If you love to dance slowly, then you will love this set. This mix of Buenos Aires is still one of my favorite songs to dance to. | ||

| Listen to this tanda As with many alternative tangos, these are technically milongas, but they are slow enough to dance tango to if you like. I find these types of songs a little annoying, because you keep trying to decide whether to dance tango or milonga. |

| Thes are all tango cover songs by Tanghetto. They all have very heavy beats and switch rhythms a decent amount. Advanced dancers that like alternative music can have lots of fun with them. Beginner dancers will struggle and often run around way too fast to them. | ||

| Once again, these are mostly milongas, but you can also dance tango to them. These are more Rap / Hip-Hop inspired tangos. | ||
