After eleven years of Anime and Fantasy Nights, Richard is choosing his all-time favorite tunes for each kind of dance tonight, leaning toward music that is especially beautiful, lush, gorgeous and big, especially for the 22 waltzes of various kinds being played at the dance party. Videogame music has always been included in Anime Night, which adds a sometimes eccentric and always spirited flavor to swing, salsa, tango and hustle music.
