I was saying that for the first ten seconds or so he's just tuning, and then it's in compas but not cuadrado. Something like that. Yep, up to 6:16-6:17 he is just checking his tuning. From there on I'd say the compas is very strong, even though in a couple of places the passage of time gets stretched and compressed. I was thinking, so why is this not 'out of compas'? And I think some part of the answer is, because Tomatito is able to communicate clearly the stretching and compressing of time, so there is no contradiction between a listener's sense of time and his sense of time. Instead, you go for a ride and feel the turns and twists without losing the compas. He is able to do this via the accents and the familiarity of the phrasing within a compas and overall. His accents and phrasing stay exactly right in the modified flow of time; the compas structure is preserved.
