This musical genre is recognized across the world because of its passionate dance. Tango initiated among European immigrants in Argentina and Uruguay and started to become popular in Europe and the United States during the 1920s. Throughout time tango music went from being a lower-class “gangster” genre to become a respectable middle-class dance. It has been changing all through the years; most recently jazz and electronic elements have also been added. This playlist is a blend of the best tango songs ever recorded and the modern “electro tango” or “tango fusion.” Esto es Buenos Aires!
