DavidRG -> The Flamenco Podcast, episode 1 (Mar. 18 2016 10:03:10)

Hello, do you think that there's an audience, a demand for a flamenco podcast?
I've just made one:
http://mirabras.libsyn.com/the-flamenco-podcast-episode-001

All feedback is welcome, even if you think it's crap.

P. S. : the audio quality in the interview is bad, I know, but there's not much to do on that, sorry. The next time it will be better
P. S. : the email adress info@mirabras.com will be ready next week.

Best regards.
David Reguero.

Nice thanks! Just skipped to the Conde interview. A little controversial maybe. "Today's flamenco is more effeminate." And non-spaniards can mask their foreigness by playing this "jazzy flamenco" they can't mask that if they play sabicas. Hmmmmm to me it seams it'd be harder for a foreigner to mimic Diego del Morao than sabicas......
Anyhow, he's a monster player and it's cool to hear interviews like this, thanks again!

I'd tend to disagree. But then I saw Israel Galvan dance. Hard to argue with that.[8D]

Haven't had time to listened to it yet David but look forward to it!

Olé! Nice podcast!
Enjoyed it very much. I don't know what you'll get in terms of an audience, but I'm sure there are quite a few people who will enjoy it. And having interviews translated into English is I'm sure helpful to many.
Since you welcome feedback and I love giving it jeje[8D]:

-The woman's voice is a computer-generated voice right? It kind of startled me a bit (especially when on top of those radar beeps. kind of spooky!).

-Your English is good. I'm not the kind of guy to go around correcting everything but there is one thing that came up a few times and I raised my eyebrows each time so if it can help. The whole "let's break news" thing. You'd have to check with other English speakers but it struck me as rather odd. Breaking news implies that it's very new (i.e. interrupting a program for breaking news) or that you're the very first to impart that news. I wouldn't use it how you did. Anyways, not a criticism at all (I wouldn't dare, your English is much better than my Spanish), just a pointer on something that came up a few times in the podcast and that you're likely to come up against again in future podcasts.

-I wonder if people would like to hear a few less flamenco-related and perhaps more personal questions in the interview. I'm personally dying to know how J. Conde is managing the culture shock of going from Cordoba to Germany. But that may just be me liking gossip a bit too much.[8D] Obviously the main focus is flamenco but maybe it wouldn't hurt to go slightly off-topic from time to time? I know I'd enjoy it.

In any event, all of this is just details. It was very good and I quite enjoyed it.

Cheers,

Hahaha he did a workshop out here and I took my girlfriend to it and when he bent down to get his bag I noticed he had a thong on. Someone else that noticed made eye contact with me and started dying. He was a super nice down to earth cool guy though.

Yeah breaking news is brand new news but doesn't bother me a bit. Most of that was brand new news to me :)
Keep doin what your doin David!

I get one through iTunes: it’s called Nuestro flamenco, “dirigido, escrito y presentado por el especialista y escritor José María Velázquez-Gaztelu, responsable también de la serie de TVE 'Rito y Geografía del Cante y del Baile',que lleva en antena más de un cuarto de siglo”.

It seems excellent to me. So far I’ve got the following episodes:

Incidentally, what’s happened to the old Spanish «quotation marks»? Have they been superseded by the "English ones"? I still see the former in books…



DavidRG -> RE: The Flamenco Podcast, episode 1 (Mar. 19 2016 4:28:55)

Thank you all for your feedback, I really appreciate it.

- Leñador: I don't agree with what Javier Conde says, I think you can have a deep flamenco sound if you study and practice, regardless of your birthplace, but that's his opinion. :)
- Piwin: thanks for your comment. I don't know if "effeminate" is the right word but I think that today flamenco is much softer, wich I don't enjoy very much
* Yes it's a computer generated voice (LOL) I couldn't find anybody to do that in English so I thought that could be funny
* Thanks for your advice on the "breaking news". I'm learning English by listening to some podcasts and radio stations and I took it from there, I thought it had a different sense. Is it ok if I say "let's talk about the latest flamenco news/events?" :)
* I also enjoy gossip and the personal stories, but they usually give you like...10 minutes for the interview, so the environment doesn't help, but I'll try it if I find the right moment. Once I tried to start an intervew with personal thoughts and stuff and it was a disaster, I'll tell you some day :)
- Thank you, Goldwinghai, I hope that next episodes will be better
- Thanks Paul Magnussen. I should have been more specific and say "a podcast in English" (because I already have a radio show in Spanish). "Nuestro flamenco" is more than a podcast, it's a radio show that you can find on RNE (the Spanish public radio station) and it's probably the best flamenco radio show. I met Jose Maria Velazquez-Gaztelu once and he is a very nice, polite and down-to-earth person. I respect him very much.
And yes, in Spain we don't use these <<quotation marks>> very much. We use "these ones" and we think that the English quotation marks are 'these ones' :)

Thank you very much for all your comments. Making that podcast was not easy because I don't even have a computer and I'm always asking for somebody to let me use his/her laptop, recording things with a cellphone and things like that :)

And now, let's start doing the second episode! ;)



Leñador -> RE: The Flamenco Podcast, episode 1 (Mar. 19 2016 4:29:58)

Great! Can't wait!



estebanana -> RE: The Flamenco Podcast, episode 1 (Mar. 19 2016 10:44:25)

I could go for another flamenco podcast, hope you continue to develop it and I will subscribe and listen for a while and let you know what I think.

If you can make it downloadable to a format that can be played when you are not connected to the internet even better.

There is also an American pod cast review show called 'The Big Listen' on National Public Radio in the US - they love to hear about new podcasts from Europe, look them up on iTunes or the search and contact them. They talk about new podcasts and promote them. Tell them about your show!


All for the good.

Thanks for this I just subscribed.

I listen to several history podcasts to pass time while I work, but I had not thought to look for flamenco podcasts, brilliant.

Yeah I know what you mean about the "softer" play. I just don't think it applies to all contemporary players. To some, definitely. What I worry about more is how some players seem to get lost in the "technical" aspect of things to the detriment of any form of story-telling. For instance, the Habichuela nieto kid has amazing technique, but everytime I hear him play it just goes way over (or under) my head. It's like sure, nice picado, but what are you telling me with all of this? what's the story?
- to be fair, a lot of journalist today sound like they have a computer generated voice too! Some of the intonations just suprised me ^^
- Yeah "let's talk about the latest flamenco news/events" sounds find. You can also "cover", "go over", "run through" the news among other things. Your English is really good and as Lenador said it really wasn't a bother, I just find that, as a foreigner in Spain, you reach a point in a language where people stop correcting you so it makes it hard to improve. I have to ask people here repeatedly to correct me or else they just won't do it and I'll be stuck at the same level I'm at today.
-Oooh sounds like there's a juicy story there! [:D] Yeah I kind of figured there were also practical constraint like time, was just a suggestion if it were possible.

Also, Kudos for managing to make a podcast without a computer!!



Delta_Slider -> RE: The Flamenco Podcast, episode 1 (Mar. 28 2016 2:14:59)

Looks really cool! Will give it a listen!!
