Fil Cruz, Jr.
My name is Fil Cruz Jr., and I love dancing Argentine Tango and exploring the dance’s rich musical heritage. Since 2006, when I began DJing at milongas and practicas throughout Austin, Houston, and San Antonio, I have seen how tango music has deeply touched dancers. As a DJ, I am perpetually on the search for those rare tracks, transfers, and new recordings that will inspire dancers’ connection and improvisation. Over the years, I have assembled an eclectic collection of both traditional, nuevo, and alternative tango music, which I craft into tandas that play to dancers and their energy. When I DJ, the milonga runs overtime. Come out and see for yourself: I hope to see you on the dance floor and at my weekly tango practica in Austin (on Sundays starting at 7pm at Tapestry *[link]*). For more information, please email me at filcruzjr@msn.com.
