Live and Otherwise: Bass Music with Bassnecter

Urban Culture Vulture: Embracing Argentine Tango

It’s not easy to embrace Argentine tango at the start—literally. In order to understand the graceful dance, a dancer has to embody a sophisticated posture, to lean in elegantly, to allow another person to move her and to be smoothly guided. He should at least buy the girl dinner first, right? Last weekend, I attended a milonga practice at The Sunday Social Milonga in Scottsdale led by Steve and Diane (a milonga being a place or an event where tango is danced). Interestingly enough, the intimate dance form is said to contain elements of strong African rhythms due to the African community in Buenos Aires during the time it was developed in the 1890s.

Piece of Craft: Reinventing Your Shoes

Sometimes after too much wear and tear, our favorite pair of shoes can no longer be our favorite. They’re too worn and the color we once loved has faded dramatically, so it seems almost pointless to wear a pair of shoes that aren’t as cool-looking as when they were first purchased.
