This is awesome Jean Marc, thanks so much for filming and posting these videos, I rarely comment but this one really taught me some great new things and I wanted to thank you!
for the proper concept of Montunos and Clave (and Clave in general) see this well recognized expert on the subject and pay attention especially at 1:35
The Son Montuno in Duple-Meter and is usually said to be in or felt in "Cut-Time" so you beat your foot twice in each measure when writing in whole, half, quarter and eighth notes or 4 times in a measure if you're writing in whole, half, quarter, eighth notes and 16th notes.
(That is, if clave takes 2 bars is written with 1/4s and 1/8ths or clave in one bar with 8ths and 16ths = 2 foot beats per bar, or, 4 beats per bar, respectively.)
Hermano el montuno lo estas tocando con la clave al revés,estas cruzado.Tus percusion es 3-2 pero tu tocas 2-3, te en cuenta eso porque es lo mas importante,la clave es fundamental,de resto tienes sabor, si practicando.Saludos desde Colombia
Me parece que lo esta tocando bien.... en clave !! El entra en el primer golpe de 3-2. O sea, en el " downbeat" de 3. La clave se toma dos measures. Ocho notas negras (1/4 notes). La primera nota del tumbao es a tiempo , igual que la de la clave cuando es a 3-2.Despues, lo demas es a contra tiempo
Si el tumbao lo empiesa al 2-3 pues entoces entra cruzado no??
very nice and liberating ,indeed..but the camera focus is too far from the strings and the explaining too fast, which make it an advance lesson of the whole thing. Now, with a slower and patient break- down of the lessons, note by note, this could turn into a miracle...making beginners and intermidiates to soar to unimagible plateaus.
Very useful instruction. I would like something like that for bass guitar.
Watch my "Montuno" on bass on my You Tube Channel.

You'll see it written all kinds of ways...

@JMBELK
I think your playing it right man. You start your guajeo on the downbeat of 3-2. If your downbeat was at 2-3, THEN you'd be off beat....( crossed)
The guajeo and clave pretty much follow each other. Both start at the first down beat, after that it's all sincopated and they tag along each other.

hey, that's what I was trying to say (for days!) on the other clip he posted where it's also Cruzado.
Thanks for adding to the cause!
