DJane Anna  (Russia) lives in Toulouse

Anna has been in music since childhood, and her playing ranges from piano classics to rock music.
She fell in love with tango music in 1998, and it took her more than a decade to start dancing instead of just listening. But it was worth it.
She loves both the music of the Golden Era and the Neo tango music, and she hopes that someday they can coexist harmoniously.

"Music flows in me and I flow with music. Every set I play is live and depends on the dance floor right here, right now. I love that kind of continuous flow of music, that takes dancers through time and a wide range of emotions. I am in love with the process - of searching and trying something new, changing and combining the music sounds into a stream at the console, feeling the dancers’ energy...

The only frustrating thing is that there are things I really want to dance to, but I never have an opportunity. So I dance by myself while mixing.”

VJ Andreas (Germany) lives in Hannover

He is a photo, video, and concept artist.
He came to tango in 2005 and has since been interested in dance and music, both in the so-called traditional field and in alternative concepts.
In 2015 he expanded his artistic work to the field of visual live performance.
Since then, his live performances can be found at many neo-tango events in Europe. He takes the mood of the music and the dancers and transforms it live into visual elements. These are created by mixing and changing various graphic elements in real-time, and in turn, influence the dancers.
He calls his live performance "Visual Dancing". The content he uses comes partly from his exhibitions, were created by him, especially for Visual Dancing, and comes from artist friends or from publicly available sources.
In 2019, he established ultra-widescreen visuals up to image formats of 72:9 in the neo-tango scene - not every projector now projects the same image content, but a wide image is projected across several projectors.
In 2020 and 2021, he created the artistic concept of NeotangoTV and played virtual dance floors with his visuals for more than 300 hours.
He also created virtual stages for streamed live concerts by Carlos Libedinsky and the Steamed Tango Project.
