About
DJ Grigor
Argentine tango DJ based in the San Francisco Bay Area.
I started dancing tango in 2008 and DJing in 2011. What began as curiosity after a Biagi musicality workshop grew into a genuine passion for studying tango music—especially the golden age—and a love of connecting with dancers through what I play.
For me, tango is about connection: with your partner, with the music, and with everyone else on the floor.
As a DJ, I stay tuned to the dancers and the energy of the room, curating each tanda to keep that energy alive—moving from playful and dynamic to sweet and melodic, and now and then to something deep and dramatic. I’d rather not catch dancers off guard with very experimental or hard-to-dance music, but I always try to bring a touch of novelty to the floor. The best nights are when dancers trust the music enough to stop thinking about it and just dance.
Over the past fifteen years I’ve played at milongas, festivals, and marathons across the United States, Australia, and New Zealand. These days you’ll find me DJing regularly at milongas around the Bay Area.
