This is a classic hit "Abreme La Puerta" by Antony Santos who is
one of the most successful and prominent artists of the Dominican Republic.
Bachata, as danced in D.R., is very diverse in styles especially from one region to the other, additionally, the playfulness of the rhythms in the instrumentation as well as the phrasing of the lyrics, provide so many possibilities for stylistic preferences as well as 4 possible timings. In this video, the follow selects the timing that she felt comfortable with based on the accent she heard/felt and the lead joins in on that timing, so essentially the lady is the master of timing. Due to the rich polyrhythms of the 5 core instruments; Bongos, Guira, Segunda (rhythm guitar), Bass guitar (Bajo), and Lead Guitar (Requinto) and the three main rhythms Derecho, Majao, and Mambo, each of the 4 timings create a unique in relation to the sequence of beats and accents in the structure of each particular song. Have you tried dancing on different timings? Try with your favorite songs, then challenge your self by creating your footwork, figures, rotations, and other elements consistently in a timing that you aren't used to.
