Milonga/Salon

Photos: Milonga @ Kiosque #1

We held our fingers crossed for most of the week and it paid off: there was only a little rain at the first Milonga @ Kiosque this Saturday in the Brussels park. The dancers, on the other hand, were numerous. The first one dropped in just after 5PM and the milonga only stopped because we […]

Milongas at Dieweg are nice, but sunny milongas at Dieweg are even nicer. This Sunday was a very sunny milonga. DJ Ben was in great shape and even I got to dance more than I took pictures.

Milonga: Jardins du Dieweg, March 2008

It had been a long time, so we were all happy that Theresa organised another milonga at the Jardins du Dieweg. DJ Ben started when it was still light, and kept the dancefloor packed until the last Cumparsita. It was already warm now, so bring your hand-held fans for the next one in June!

Time flies when you’re having milongas: Cellule133a has been hosting Brussels’ best (and only) Friday milonga for two years and this was a good reason for a celebration: champaign for all dancers and excellent live music by the Argentine Ranas duo. And of course, lots of dancing until quite late.

La Cantante de Tango: the film shoot

If you were wondering why some of the familiar faces did not show up at this weekend’s milongas, this is the reason: we were at Diego Martinez Vignatti‘s film shoot. “La Cantante de Tango”, Diego’s second feature film, required a milonga scene, and it was shot right at the Cultural Center of Schaarbeek, on Nosotros […]

Milonga: Tangueria, March 2008

With the new airco system in place, temperature at the Tangueria stayed within human limits, even with the sizable crowd that was there this Sunday March 9th. DJ Peter gave us a lot of good music, including some neotango and milonga (thank God).

Milonga: La Luna, March 2008

And they dance in Antwerp too, yes they do! I finally got out of my comfy Brussels chair and went to dance in La Luna. A really cosy venue, very nicely lit with candles and somewhat of a lightshow, with good music by DJ Peter and a friendly crowd. Amongst them some familiar faces and […]
