RE: Fandango (FdH) nudillos backing ... (in reply to kitarist)
It's not much but there's this:
A bit slow compared to Aires Choqueros. Playing it a x1.25 speed puts it in the same ballpark, but it changes the sound somewhat. I guess it depends what you need it for. For solo practice it'll probably do the trick. For anything else, probably not.

No offense but what they do on the table (knock flick flick) is achieved by a basic metronome at any speed you want, so, I’m not sure what you really need unless you want to make a recording with it?

I just like how it sounds! Way cooler than a metronome sound. Yes, utility-wise it is the same. I just dreamed of adding a bit of beauty to utility, brother.

for me having the nudillos and palmas, accustoms you the to sounds of a "real fiesta", thing that confused the hell outta me when i first went to spain was hearing the palmas, contra palmas and nudillos going at the same time, but got used to hearing it and feeling the swing some artists can create with it.
