Lung-Kuei has attracted both envy and affection throughout the tango community. The men want to dance like him, and the women like to dance with him. His immersion in the tango world has been a happy success.
An integral part of theU.S.
Lung-Kuei started studying tango in 2005 and began deejaying in 2007. Gradually he built a solid reputation as a deejay and now he’s invited to spin tunes at the most popular and best milongas and practicas in town. Tango festivals fly him in to DJ. His choices are not strange: he just plays one good song after another, placed in sequence with sensitivity.
Lung-Kuei has zero attitude about what he does well, and always keeps a sense of humor about things, while remaining a serious milonguero, 100% dedicated to the craft, the life, and the music of tango.
Cem, originally from Izmir – Turkey, has met with with fabulous rhythms of Tango in his early ages and enhanced his Tango skills with both Turkish and Argentinean masters. With the great passion and dynamism of the music he started Djing in Asia and Turkey. He prefers to select different tracks according to the crowd and the event he is playing for. Mostly he is well known for his tandas that inspire dancers and make them move with a connection to the rhythm of the music.
In his lists he prefers starting with some smooth tracks for saloon style and close embrace enthusiasts from D'Arienzo, Biagi, DiSarli, Canaro and Tanturi. Later in the night, those carefully selected tracks are followed by harder and more dramatic tunes from De Angelis and Pugliese. And of course rhythmic vals and cheerful milonga tandas not to be forgotten. Also depending on the crowd mood he is never shy to add some surprise nuevo tracks to rise the energy level of the stage and milongueros.
