dj Ferdinand

A new talent in the world of Tango DJ 's is Ferdinand de Marez Oyens. On Sunday nigth (Milonga de Pascua) he will be is performing his dj skills. DJ Ferdinand will make you wanna dance all night!

Ferdinand was heavily into salsa dancing when a friend persuaded him to come along to a tango workshop. He was convinced that he wouldn’t like the dance and certainly not the music. At the end of the night he happily signed up for his first tango course! At first it was neo tango music that caught his ear but it was only a matter of time before he discovered the real thing: traditional tango from the golden era. He stated listening, collecting and researching.

From being a collector and a dancer it was a small step to becoming a DJ. Ferdinand is also one half of the producers duo ‘van Hagen & de Marez Oyens’. This duo produced a new tango lounge album ‘Finalmente’ - to be released summer 2012.
