Cortinas

Lors des bals à Bruxelles, l'usage de la cortina et des tandas n'est pas encore bien entré dans nos habitudes. Or c'est un excellent moyen de "remettre les pendules à l'heure", de réinviter, de se calmer un peu.
Des avis ?

It's almost as if some DJs don't want to use the cortina at any price. Maybe it's a European thing? I prefer to have cortinas, actually.

My 2 eurocents...
1) Technically, it is a complicating factor: if you use 2 cd players for mixing tandas you almost need a 3rd one for playing cortinas
2) I heard djs who paid more attention to the cortinas than to the tanda music - I'm not sure if that is a good thing
3) Musical taste ? I prefer "no cortinas" over aggressive, intrusive, irritating... cortina music
4) The most difficult part ? How to avoid that people start dancing on the cortina music ? Nowadays even in Buenos Aires it happens that when using "tango no bailable" as a cortina, people start dancing. It seems that the concept of "danceability" has shifted (thank you electrotango?)
In short : I fear the concept as much as I appreciate it....

Très juste : les cortinas ne doivent pas être dansables, et assez calmes et certainement pas une intrusion désagréable et qui casse l'atmosphère....
C'est difficile d'être DJ et on les félicite :-))
