In the pursuit of better understanding this artform, Micaela and her dance partner Alberto have also organized a Community Orchestra that hosts practices and events for new and established musicians alike to get together and take time learning the ins and outs of what makes tango special. Mica uses these insights from dance and music study to inform her DJing and it brings her great joy to share an evening of any kind of music with a roomful of people <3

My focus as TDJ is to find a ‘story’ that resonates with as many people in the room as possible and to deliver it in the best quality possible. When the magic happens and I feel the strong connection with the room/dancers, it’s one of the most rewarding experiences. I cherish that.
Outside tango, I enjoy spending time with my loved ones including two furbabies. I love exploring new places, nature, playing sports, cooking/eating and good conversation while sipping nice bourbon/whiskey/wine.
I’m honored and ecstatic to be part of AATM and create a story with you. Looking forward to seeing you in April 2025.

You won’t find Tommy more animated or joyful than when he’s behind the laptop, watching and grooving along with the dancers he’s playing for. His DJ philosophy is simple: play songs that slap, tandas that get dancers’ feet on the floor, and music that will lead to deep connection. Tommy has a holistic approach to DJing, paying special attention to opportunities to enhance the dancer’s experience beyond just choice in music. Throughout the night, you’ll find him carefully choosing the perfect cortina, using volume to manage energy, and harassing organizers with questions like “So…just how much control do we have over these lights?”
To educate and motivate beginning DJs, progressing DJs, and dancers interested in tango music, he puts on semi-regular DJ workshops, both locally and at festivals. Look for Tommy DJing events around North America, such as Marathon Z (DC), Tango on the Rocks (Denver), Austin Spring Tango, and Abrazo (Montreal).

Captivated with the light shows from live performances, it was obvious that along with the sound, the lighting played an integral part of the experience. It is this same ambiance that he works to bring to live events such as AATM. Where both the visual and audible ambiance come together to help create a pleasant and joyful experience for all. He is looking forward to helping it happen again at this year’s AATM.
