According to “My Four-Week Quest: Be Smarter” (Wired, 15.01), we need 8.2 to 8.4 hours of sleep per night to achieve good memory, quick thinking and spatial orientation.
When a milonga runs until 1 or 2 a.m., what’s a dancer to do?
Radio SASS (Short Attention Span System) takes classic tunes and whittles them down to about two minutes. Editor-musicians trim the songs to their catchiest parts by pruning seconds from a guitar solo here, lopping off a chorus there. (Wired 15.03).
Imagine this: Milongas trimmed down to two hours. Stay to the end, grab a quick bite, and be tucked in by midnight.
SASS founder George Gimarc says listeners don’t miss the snipped bits. You decide: Check out the SASS versions of popular songs at wired.com/extras.

This is why I am really loving the matinée milongas in Buenos Aires.
