'The tango rhythm'

That advert continued:

...Ive also become aware that many songs of a pop nature also have the essence and feel of the tango rhythm and could easily be danced to and enjoyed in the atmosphere of a ‘milonga'. This event is for any tango dancers who would like to enjoy dancing to songs that they wouldn’t otherwise hear at a ‘traditional’ tango social dance, and also in an environment that still retains all the soulful structures, rhythms and feel of a ‘milonga’.

A said: "The tango rhythm" does not exist in Argentine tango. It does exist in English tango, now known as Ballroom tango.

B said: Maybe he is talking about the beat.

A said: There is no beat characteristic of tango. Even tango's metre is not characteristic of tango.
