MarcChrys, i think you missed something there. It hasnt been said that there are "more" authentic instructionals out there. That would mean, that this DVD has ANY authenticity, you know? Well, that is not the case. Correct me, but pretty much everything you learn there, every technique, every piece, is WRONG. It reduces flamenco to some out-of-rythm rasgeywhados, rumba, and kind of pseudo-virtuosic playing. For those who dont know it better, it can be very harmful to learn from this DVD. Its like buying a Mercedes which says it has an airbag, when its just a baloon... the next crash will be a very hard one.

I watched the romero vid too, whilst i cant say i loved it and i would aggree with deniz the bass note falseta was overused...you cant throw him in the same basket as this Sedlack lunatic. I dont think this thread was about attacking another player and everyone pointing a finger and saying 'he sucks'. I think this thread is highlighting and bringing to peoples attention the obvious dangers of learning from a self professed 'master' whos technique is very bad, and who is also a complete lunatic who spends time making viscious youtube vids. Doitsujin(i wish i knew your real name), this is an example of you attacking a fellow musician who is just trying to make a living out of it: Its awesome how many gigs he has.... Plays all over the world................. . .. ?,... ???..?? I cant belive that.... . . . .?,... Are the people so dumb??..? Until this guy acts like the selack guy then good luck to him. Hes doing more than you are, maybe you should be happy for him instead of being jealous and attcking him? I would like to see how you perform in front of a large audiance like that on your own playing bulerias...please post a vid once you have done this and then start critisising musicians like him.

Hes doing more than you are, maybe you should be happy for him instead of being jealous and attacking him? Its my opinion about his playing. He uses the term flamenco to make his bucks, could you tell me which palo that was? So he uses the well known name for selling his sounds.Hes a trojan or copycat. Thats lame IMO. Its no attack to say his playing was annoying, I really feel like that. Its annoying noise. If he would call it Romero-music-project, I wouldnt say anything about that, except I dont like it. But he steps in the discussion field of this forum. I didnt say anything about the quality of his skills. Maybe he could play nice, if he would like to play it. I´m 0% jealous because I´m not making my money with music. It doesnt interest me at all how much money he makes. Im just amused that one can do big business with such a crap. And he can do, it doesnt interest me. quote:

He performed a bulerias? Yes there was a slight touch of a 3/4 rhythm HERE AND THERE SOMETIMES.. Thats bulerias for sure.. yes agree. .... Its a flamenco-taste-like-broken-juke-machine-sound. Techno maybe. But no flamenco. Flamingo ok..but not flamenco. If you really think one has no right to criticize other peoples playing when maybe being not as good as the one w ho is being criticized, than you should stop reading newspaper, readind cd-reviews, magazines, watching television and stop reading this forum. I´m just telling my opinion and it must not fit to anybody's opinion... otherwise the idea of the discussion forum wouldnt work. You can be against my opinion,..thats fine. I accept that.

Doit, you talk big and loud. There no doubt about that. But talk is cheap, and cheap talk is easy on a forum behind an assumed name...you can be anyone you want here in internet fantasy land. But hey maybe you have good reason to talk so big. Lets see a video upload from you, then can we maybe understand all the big talk you bandy around the place.
