Yüksel Şişe

About

I’m Yüksel Şişe, from Istanbul. Two threads run through everything on this site: software and tango.

I’ve been DJing traditional tango since 2008, at milongas, festivals, and marathons (the Istanbul Tango Festival, the Eskişehir Tango Marathon, and Bien de Maraton among them). My ground is the Golden Age: Pugliese, Caló, Di Sarli, D’Arienzo, Canaro, Troilo, Donato, Tanturi, Fresedo.

As a developer I build the tools I wished existed. Most of them are for tango, and all of them are small, honest, and subscription-free. The MyLonga family is the current center of that work.

In 2012 I started Tanda of the Week, which continues weekly on Patreon.
