I always like hearing more skilled drummers talk while playing. They always talk in a way that matches the rhythm of what they're playing.

Stick-It Productions. That’s because it’s literally impossible not to, as a teacher I’ve started doing more talking and I have to practically meter what I say, it’ll get more fluid over time but it’s near impossible to talk out of time regardless

This is a good video on the Merengue. I like this better then Tommy Igoe's notation on Groove 38. Igoe's is good but it works more as filler whereas this video's groove feels more like a main idea. Well done!

He played essentially three or four bass drum patterns against the Merengue. My monitor has very little bass so I couldn't hear them clearly. Would someone mind charting them out like this (* = 16th note O = kick drum 4/4||: * * * * O * O * * * * * O * O * :||

Rep dominicano

@dbigfut5710 5 жыл бұрын

im dominican, and clave has nothing to do with merengue, eventhough it fits. heck, you can make rock and roll fit in the clave pattern if you wanted to. in the dominican republic when the band plays merengue the rythm section never mentions clave ever nor even as reference to keep the beat. clave is something left for son and salsa which are afrocuban styles. although it is true that merengue relies on the use of percussion from african roots the music is played very straight as opposed to afro cuban music which syncopates and uses a lot of the circular triplet feel and swing switching back and forth based on the song or the inspiration of the percussionist. i dind't see merengue apambichao, nor merengue machucao or (a lo maco) which is the most played form of merengue in the radio today.

@JuanAlduey 3 жыл бұрын

Im dominican too, and it seems to me the clave is a structural part of merengue. Don't take it from me though, here's a professional dominican musician elaborating on the subject: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/e6ulp7CK2sumg3k.html.

Merengue comes from the Haitian people. Trujillo declared it the national genre after visiting Haiti carnival. Facts!

@josecornielle8135 5 жыл бұрын

that's literally so wrong, The only truth to that is that Trujillo made it the national genre, that is it. Haitians have their own version, but you can literally look up that domincan merengue came from the northern regions of the country

How can merengue comes from Haiti if it came from the campesinos from the North of the country which is very far from Haiti are usually whiter people? Merengue is from the area name Norte o cibao.

Another thing Trujillo hated anything that was haitian ,so how he would try to take a rithem from Haiti and make dominican? Also meringue is older than Trujillo.

El Merengue Dominicano NO se toca en clave, eso no existe en el folclore de la republica dominicana. Es un error intentar cuadrar la interpretacion del Merengue con la Clave, porque los acentos y la sincopa no son los mismas. Mire un Perico Ripiao, y no vera una clave como instrumento por ningun lado, Porque? porque La Clave NO ES PARTE DEL FOLCLORE de la republica dominicana.
