Zagreb Embrace

In 2015, a dream came of a weekend full of tango, with the very best maestros the world could offer,
beautiful music played by talented DJs and nights spent in warm embraces. And so, out of love, passion and yearning... Zagreb Embrace was born.
This year we continue that tradition - learning from the best, enjoying passionate tandas and being inspired by the maestros' performance.
Join us and let's embrace Zagreb together!

DJs

DJ GIUSEPPE CLEMENTE "El Capitán" (Italy)

Giuseppe loves all Tango music, from the beginning to the present; as DJ, he prefers the "Golden years" of Tango, but carefully follows the atmosphere and the situation of the dance floor and, if the atmosphere of the Milonga so requires, does not mind some excursions into Guardia Vieja... So, no rules!!

DJ DUŠICA (Serbia)

When she is at the DJ desk, Dušica will always make sure that the atmosphere on the podium is just right! She especially enjoys tangos from the Golden Age, and as a DJ, apart from Belgrade milongas, she often plays music at festivals all over Europe. With her selection of tandas, be prepared that you won't have a chance to sit still!

DJ BARBARA (Croatia)

The Golden Age of tango forms the heart of her DJ sets, though she isn't afraid to colour the milonga with tandas from beyond that era. With special attention to the energy of the ronda, she weaves a musical story of rhythm and melody that will keep you on the dance floor all night long. Whether at local milongas or international events, her goal is simple: to have you dancing until the very last tanda... and leave you wanting more.

DJ VLADO (Slovenia)

Vlado has been DJing since 2010 and since then he regularly selects music at milongas all over Slovenia, Croatia, Austria, Italy... He is a true tango music traditionalist, who will take you on a journey to the very heart of the Golden Age of Tango. His motto is clear: "Every true milonga stands on the pillars of the big four (Di Sarli, Pugliese, Troilo, D'Arienzo)."

DJ PAVLE (Croatia)

An avid aficionado for tango music, DJ Pavle has been creating tandas for events in Zagreb with passion and enthusiasm. His playlists take you on a musical journey – from wild energy to nostalgic melancholy, from anguish to sweet tenderness.
