Song choices for Tango?

I'm trying to think of some songs for all 10 dances and Tango is the one where I'm struggling. Can't think of much appropriate songs for it. SCD and DWTS seem to struggle a lot with the Tango as well, both seem to end up using modern pop songs that aren't that great of a fit for the style.

Any ideas?

American or International (standard) tango?

Competitive or social?

Standard and competitive.

Then DWTS and SYTYCD videos are truly unlikely to be even vaguely helpful.

Try youtube for professional standard competitions showing rounds, and see what they are using for tango.

Or, if you're a competitive dancer yourself, talk to your teacher/studio and get the names of some of the songs they play for lessons.
 
"Santa Maria de Buen Aire" - Gotan Project
"Danzarín" - Anibal Troilo
"Caminito" Alfred Hause
"Notre Tango d'Amour" - Vivki Landeros
"Bandoneon" - Julio Iglesias
"Tempranillo" - Madrágora Tango
 
OP wasn't very clear with intent, but perhaps the intent is danceable pop songs, like they use for the reality shows?
