JWP -> Solea Enrique de Melchor (Apr. 16 2012 18:54:44)
Hy everyone,
I've always liked Enrique de Melchor especially por solea. He has a very distinctive sound and is very recognizable.
My question to you guys about his solea is:
Does someone knows what exactly he plays at beat 9 in the compass starting at 38" in the above video??
(It's something you'll repeatedly hear in his solea's)
Off course i've all kinds of idea's and have slowed it down. Yet, I don't get it to sound like him. Especially beat 8 & 9.
7 8 9 or 9 -------0---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------1---1----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------0-------0-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------3----------------2h3-------0h1h2h3---1 h 3---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I Would really appreciate it if someone could help me out.
The thing is the timing....you must hold the open d string for an 8th value tied to a sixteenth triplet and then the two hammer ons on fret 2 and3 are fast 16th notes tripelets....or even you can cram it harder so you have a dotted 8th and two 32nd notes if you want. Point is you have to cram those two hammer ons rapidly in time so you land the open bass E right on 10. Also let that 3rd fret F note ring out over the E bass untill beat 11 when you change to 2nd fret E.
Here is a clip of that section JWP. Maybe Ricardo can correct any inaccuracies? [:)] I'm using my webcam mic here. *I'm not playing the d on the remate (3rd fret or rather 8th fret , 2nd string)
