Forget Shazam. Youtube can instantly identify most tango music tracks, orchestra, vocalist, everything, at least as long as you have full track, beginning to end.
Upload you own video with the selected soundtrack, and Youtube will do its job in a peculiarly unwelcoming way: as soon as it's processed, you'll see a warning in your upload manager, "Matched 3rd party content". Click on the warning and see who claims to own your track and how they call it.
How much effort would it take me to identify a lesser-known Biagi vals?

I hope to talk more about Puszta (which is to Hungary what Pampa is to Argentina) and about this tune (which, in Enrique Rodriguez remix as "Amor en Budapest", was the title and the closing song of Budapest Marathon where it complete the two sweetest tandas in my tango life). Puszta Fox was written for an operetta celebrating Gypsy music heritage of Szeged and its legendary songwriter, Danko (1858-1903), and the lyrics by Hans Bussmann lifted whole lines from Danko's "Dorozsmai Windmill" about the mill which froze still when the beloved gypsy girl went with another guy.

Sage advice from a Russian LJ. (And I'm, like, why write my own Tango Survival Guide when I can cite the classic authors instead ;) )
In front of a movie screen? Moscow, Milonga Me Gusta (2012) (etango image)
Don't sit in the dark corners. Or in front of a movie screen, or wherever you're lit from behind. Why? In the darkness, they won't see you. In the faraway corners, they won't find you. If the light illuminates you from behind, then the direction of your gaze won't be visible, and your cabeceo will fall flat. And if everyone is looking at a movie screen behind you, then you'd have hard time telling if anybody is looking at you rather than at the screen!
(DP's comment: Back rows of tables NEVER work. Also it's also amazing how at outdoor milongas, people don't get it that sunglasses make their gaze invisible, too. Lastly, if you're nearsighted, then don't you think that glasses may help A LOT? )
Wanna dance? Then go & stand where all the like-minded, eager dancers gather!
(DP's comment: entry points to the dance floor, especially the ones closest to the dance hall entrance; spots near the water cooler, bar or, yes, restroom. In the grand old Norse Hall of Portland, the storied "best fishing spot" is near the trash can ... probably not because the trash can attracts the most eager dancers, but because it guards the passageway to the bar & lounge)
The topic of your conversation may be absolutely breathtaking, but it's still recommended that you pause your conversation during cortina (and at the beginning of the next tanda) Why? Because you don't want to make an impression that you have much more pressing interests than dancing. Ditto heading to the bar / drinking coffee / eating / reading books / meditating with you fav gadgets.
(DP's comment: it's time to look around; perk up, don't look down)
Don't sit in street clothes, and, especially, without your dance shoes. (Do take the dancing shoes off you want to make a break!) "Display your determination and readiness"
DP's comment: in America's air-conditioned halls, a warm shawl over your shoulders doesn't mean that you aren't ready. A slumped posture usually does. BTW sometimes it's hard to tell if a tanguera is "ready" because the body language may be ambiguous, and so you try checking what kind of shoes she wears, but alas, her feet are tucked under a table :)
Also some festival-specific sage advice from the previous installment of the series (more questionable IMHO, but still interesting. I will leave it mostly without specific comments since I think that the advice below won't work equally well for everyone)
"At the best fishing spot" FRWL Marathon, Moscow, 2015. Etango image
Be communicative; if you know more people, you'll dance more. You like somebody's way of dancing? Compliment them. You like DJs? Thumbs-up them. You like how it is organized? Tell it the organizers. You don't know something about the place? How are things done? How to get there? Ask around; once people know that you're new to this festival, they won't just help you - they'll get you dances too. You're too shy? Tango should help you overcome it. Don't be too idiosyncratic with your clothing, keep an eye on the others' style. If your clothes are soaking wet, or rumpled, then it may be taken as a sign of disrespect. Use different shoes; once your feet get tired in one pair of shoes, they may be rescued by switching to another pair. There is a lot of "black magic" for the tired feet (creams and sprays, ice buckets, reiki, whatnot ... read and listen and find what works for you).
(DP: For very long milongas, if I'm tired and things go downhill, I practice a "reboot" - a shower and a complete change of clothes ... you see, now it's a different me!)
(... skipping several recommendations which mostly parallel the ones already translated above)
Take care of your food and drink; don't eat heavy meals before milongas
(DP: too often, tangueros feel dog tired simply because they didn't drink enough water and didn't take enough electrolytes. Yes, we loose salt when dancing, and we loose energy with it! I swear by Cliff Cubes, an electrolyte-rich chews favored by distance runners)
Pace yourself! A day with too many classes followed by a night with too many milonga hours may deflate the rest of your festival!
(DP: being able to take approximately one hour naps helps a lot; coming to a milonga a few hours late, but refreshed, may project an impression that you're tough and determined, and help you get the dances. But don't come to the last few hours of an all-nighter; it's like coming too late to a party when everybody's is already too drunk and you just can't fit in anymore)
Don't stay too far from the venues! It may seem like staying half an hour away isn't a big deal, but it can be a huge deal.
Phew, next time I should remember to pull and tuck back all the cables to make sure there are no loose connections! Thanks Dave for troubleshooting!

I love Los Piconeros, originally an Andalusia folk ballad with its scene of the highland dawn, with Luna Lunera hiding behind the hills and the first rays of Sun caressing the olive groves - and I find it so touching when Flores overlays the old Andaluz dialectisms with the sound of Argentinian Castellano :) But the ending tune of this tanda is no less special; it's an Enrique Rodriguez remix of a classic Russian gypsy folk romance of love and loss (which in turn borrowed the musical theme from an old slow French waltz). It certainly sped up quite a bit in Buenos Aires!

10. Enrique Rodrigues, Armando Moreno "2 No Te Apures Por Dios Postillon - Armando Moreno" 2:59
"Gypsy theme #452", the 1915 single cover.
From Wikipedia
Can't resist adding a few visual and audio vignettes. This "Coachman, for goodness sake, don't hurry; there isn't anybody left to go to, there isn't anybody left to love" is the theme of a classic Russian Gypsy Art Nouveau romance, strictly forbidden and at the same time wildly popular and widely alluded to in the USSR... and it makes a very tango kind of allusion itself, in a counterpoint to the poetic and macho image of ever-flying speedy Troika horses (which are mentioned in the opening line of the Castellano letras too).
