It's the same old siguiriyas rhythym but fast, the way the old timers used to sing. Some parts of the cante sound like that video where Camarón sings in front of a white wall to an unseen guitarist and a door opens slowly at the end to reveal a sunrise.
RE: Duquende and Paquete (in reply to NormanKliman)
Could be Seguiriyas but maybe more a variation of it since it doesnt work out with 12? I have never heard something like that, so an example would be nice (if you have).
Heyho, lurked a long time but now felt like writing because the first vid really flashed me. Seems it is siguiriyas. If you count in 5´s the heavy beat is the 3 and not the 1. So you feel the 3-4-5 as 1-2-3, which is confusing but really cool.
Hey Deniz, its me, Nick, we played in Eckernförde, cheers.
I really love this forum with all its great players and characters, just am not that talkative

Here you can see the same groove no guitar, just cane:

It´s a fast Siguiriyas like the one from Potito with Diego del Morao (on Barrio Alto). btw. Diego played on all tracks. Cool CD.
Thx for the answers, i really didnt know about this. If somebody told me to play seguiriyas over this rhythm i would be really confused!
Hey Nick!! Glad you posted. How is it going on? Saw some nice gig pictures of you, i think it was at studivz? Anyways, happy playing! Hope we can meet again some time. Maybe this time i can show you some falsetas too
