5. Miscellaneous DJs seem to follow the 2-1-2-1 approach to music. 2 tandas of tango, 1 tanda waltz, 2 tandas tango, 1 tanda of milonga. In the States, the pattern seems to be 4-1-4-1. Sorin Varzaru replied: "Where are you dancing? In the NE (Boston, NYC, Montreal) I have heard either 2-1-2-1 or 2-1-1-1. Same for all festivals I attended." At the milongas in the Denver/Boulder area we virtually always have 2-1-2-1 progressions of tandas. It has been the same at the many festivals I have attended, including the Denver, Portland, Atlanta and St. Louis festivals.
