You haven"t got a clue what you're talking about, not a single one.
You are the Jack ass, I have a degree in Flamenco with honours .
So please do YOUR research. YOU are the ignorant one. I'm not comparing him to anyone. How could I, he's not worth it. You obviously have never been to Spain or met any real Flamenco players. This guy is a faker and you fell for it.. What a knob you are!
@Semimodo so you are going to be a critic of someone who is more than probably a million times the guitarist you will ever be? stfu dude, this is flamenco it's of the rumba style. he has several books that teach several different types of flamenco and if you are comparing him to juan serrano or paco de lucia you are even more of a dumb ass than I take you for. Do your research on the history of someone before making ignorant remarks jack ass.
@SemiModo1 Ya veo que borraste tu comentario en donde dijiste que habia "licenciaturas en flamenco". Imbecil. Preguntale a Niño Miguel o a alguna Leyenda Viva del flamenco sobre su "Educacion" y veras lo que te contestan.
Anyone who criticizes this should try playing it with the speed and clarity that Juan does. And remember, this is a very much shortened version of the original. The full version includes the very fast and very difficult alzapua sequences.
Maybe you should check out players, that can actually be considered as Maestro Flamenco Guitarristas... People like Paco De Lucia, Manolo Sanlucar, Vicente Amigo, Enrique De Melchor, Paco Peña, Paco Cepero, Pepe Habichuela etc etc... For example in there ---> is the video of "Juan Martin Tarantas". Listen to that and after ur done write "Fuente Y Caudal - Paco De Lucia". Listen to it and compare... Tho Juan is a cool guy anyway =)
@GuitaristaDeFlamenco Why on earth would you want to compare this guy to the players you've mentioned? Maybe you should check out Anton Jimenez in puerto Rico. We've all heard those other guy's but so what. This guy really is amazing and no one else has ever played like him but i still would'nt waste my time comparing him to Juan Martin. Why dont you check out Anton and evaluate your own playing ability?
All guitar teachers wish they could also be successful artists. Juan Martin happens to be good at both. If he didn't have such skill at teaching, he probably wouldn't be that famous right now... but so what? He's good enough for a five star rating, at least on this vid, and his teaching materials are excellent (IMHO). Some musicians are super-tight, Juan Martin is just fun to listen to :)
Strange- in some ways it's amazing in other ways he messes up quite a lot and rushes- seems to have managed to become very famous without half the precision and technique of most top flamenco players- but I guess he just sounds good.
@guitarvideo999 If you read his flamenco tutor books, a lot of the techniques he is using here are ones that he goes through and explains early on and are basic fundamentals for flamenco. They're very hard at first because it's a different way of playing but once you get the hang of those devices then stuff like he's playing here becomes a lot more simple than it sounds
It's really not that bad. There are some flamenco style techniques which can be hard to grasp if you've never done them. But if you have a reasonable grounding, it makes the song easier to learn.
But I agree, it's not really that basic yet there are more complicated flamenco pieces.
Juan martin IS good. I have to say I personally dont like this piece. It a very difficult piece and the changes have to be fast and accurate. The problem i find is because of this i dislike that the notes dont have the chance to resonating long enough and most of the piece sounds rushed. Its a personal taste not a distructive criticism
Also Juan plays traditiional but dont reject the modern flamenco i.e.Vicente Amigo Flamenco has always been about evolving. good luck guys
hey can someone please tell me why most serious flamenco players kinda look down on rumbas? im new to the style, and like the rumbas sound the best....but i see alot of players talking smack about it.
Yes, Rumbas do sound incredible. Rumba is frowned upon by the more serious players because it originated in Cuba, as opposed to Spain. So it's not traditional Flamenco. That's why.

Sabicas was probably the best ever, and he played traditional, whereas Paco de Lucia plays more modern stuff. Juan Martin too, obviously.
yes yes paco de lucia plays only modern stuff and with no Aire (soul). but juan martin is still traditional, and the rumba although overlooked by some is now pretty much part of flamenco.
I really feel bad for you VINCENT4500 I still don't know why you make this endless effort to make yourself THE MOST HATED ICON IN UTUBE which has made Juan the most loving one keep up. I doubt if you know anything about Flamenco. Definitely you know nothing about playing Flamenco or you would have POST A VIDEO to answer everybody who think just like I do. Most definitely you have no artistic mind, character or ability. You just don't have it therefore can't act like one. Juan is the man!
none of you argumentors here have any sense of humour, which given observation of your false idol above (Mr Mediocre/charlatan he is), one would think is the first thing you need..
ps every time i see the rumba above i laughinly think 'do you Rumba Juan?', 'yes' he says in my minds eye, to which i reply 'well then take a rumba from one to ten and get the feck out of here!'...
balls richyricht! you mistake my passion and self-conviction for anger, maybye that's whay you mistook your tiny clit for a dick or vice versa? hwa hwa
This man is an artist of flamenco. Have you ever heard "Picasso Portraits"? In my opinion, it´s his best label, and the best label ever made on spanish music.
i have never met a great musician who has your anger. its only the mediocre ones who seem to be so full of hate. Maybe you are not expressing yourself fully with your music. Have you tried fishing or martial arts? It might help you to chill the fuck out, find some peace, and maybe even become an artist.
hi - yes i've seen juan play live here in uk - he was ok. i can't say he was fab cos i thought he wasn't. he lacked so much that a true flamenco player has. this tune incoporating the amount of wild tapping on the soundboard is just a way for juan to create a unique style of his own and nothing more. I totally agree with vincent paco IS much better and even he doesnt need to do all the tapping to sell his music. Juan definately lacks passion
vincent4500 - u really are a thick turd. go and get some manners, humility and get shot of the childish attitude and come back and talk properly . understand ?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
all those who defend Juan as not technically up there but having the 'feeling' think again..if he had proper duende and taste in his playing it wouldn't matter he can't even play a basic Paco de LUcia solo correctly..but he doesn't his duende is inferior just as his technique..poor bastard
You are like an empty drum the harder the hit the louder you sound. You have been asked several times to post a video, but never addressed the issue nothing but shying away from it do something +ive vessel Johnny good fellow don't just be a big mouth. Why don't you admit what it really is that you have against Juan?! Nobody has any respect for ghosts like you some people hate you so much so bad.
Who's forcing u to listen to Juan? Why're u everywher Juan/his fans are? What u mean"I accept Juan is spanish"? Eazy, who are u? Who cares? Are u insane? U haven't proved any point but making a lot of enemies. U are the one who's trying to rape Juan's reputatoion & he's been very patient about it evryone else would get a lawyer and teach u the lessons u've missed in life.Juan is a tuf guy someone told me u've been rejected by Juan as an student who coulden't play a simple 12 bit compas. Be real.
Learn how to do the rumba rhythym. That's the most impressive part of the song...the individual notes are pretty simple and you can find them in many rumbas.
Exactly right DerDrache. Its the rumba technique that most be learned. I play Juan's Rumba Del Dia Nueve and the notes are basically the same as this rumba. It's the rhythm and timing the differs. Good point.

I'm back, where is the ignorant and cowardly hypocrite 'Firooz'? I agree Juan is insane, for a start he passes himself off as a guitar God when he's not even as good a player as Paco de Lucia's dog..Paco is a GOd..now all you uneducated shitheads listen "Juan is MEDIOCRE, he should be in the dictionary instead of the word 'MEDIOCRe' it would make it clearer in meaning..now go learn some basic strumming flamenco ignoramuses..
Vincent, you have an agressive and angry tone in your comments. Maybe you just don't understand flamenco guitar. You think it's all about showing of and see who has the best technique in his right hand with all the golpe's and rasguados. True flamenco is the sound of it. I've been a classical guitarist for 7 years and after that I started flamenco with juan martin's video's. He's one of the true artists in flamenco and there is no need to say he sucks just because you like paco de lucia
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i;ve played flamenco for 13 yrs and studied with some of the top guitarists in the country, i moved on from JUan Martin crap 10 yrs ago..you maybye a classical guitarist but what you're saying tells me you know shit about flamenco..go back to weak rasguedo and girl like picado numb nuts..i'm showing what you all lack..passion..and thats reflected in my playing you cold, uneducated child in flamenco terms..
Whoever you are give up you are not getting anywhere because you don't show a sign of artistic decency never mind ability nothing but acting like a drunk bam. Some one who has rehearsed with the bests in UK, been playing for 13 years should be able to come up with something some kind of practice to back up his preach!! What is it that scares you and makes you feel so insecure what are you hiding from why are you so scared from your real self.
Miss me? Do you have anything else to do in life other than bullshit? What reflects in your playing? Where's your playing? What an obnoxious dug bark! You are Paco's dog. Even Paco de Lucia or Tomatito would probably want to slap you around. Don't get me wrong I love those guys so much that I would probably take a bullet for them but it's just you! What a disgracing human! Go to hell don't make any more enemies. Go ahead I gave you enough reasons to sewer and go through the roof. Lose my name.
I just say, this. God forbid any of us were ever good enough to get on TV or release a DVD, there would be so many plain haters out there who would crucify us. I don't know any other form of music that inspires such bile and hatred and plain snobbery. Leave the poor guy alone it's all just hype about being the best etc, good publicity you don't believe all those WHO stories or Rolling Stone tales do you. It's all about hype. Leave the poor man be.
You know, I've noticed that too. I really love the sound of flamenco, and I've been considering learning it seriously for a long time now, but my biggest turn-off has been the public that it generally tends to attract. I've never seen so much hate toward musicians in any other genre...
Vincent and others... I just believe that we should not compare Artists in the first place. Art is greater than to be compared. Juan or Paco De lucia or paco pena all have tried hard a lifetime, and each have significant differences I believe. I just respect any artist. C.Cazalse (Great Spanish Violinist) once said " People say I play music as smooth as a bird sings. I wish they knew that how hard it is for the bird to sing each song" . ;)
this song is called Le Feria from the cd Musica Alhambra.
By the way fans, im going to get lessons from Juan on the 25th this month in Yellowknife, and I'm going to watch his shows hile im there too. I can't wait
Good for you he is a very good teacher & a very honest man doesn't pay attention to his enemies. Please tell him Firooz from 70s said Hi. There are wondering losers behind any successful man.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
fuck of firooz, you're the arsehole i've seen saying things like Juan is a 'god', better than paco, so don't be a hypocrite, you ignorant uncouth individual..when the going gets tough, you firooz disappeared for months..coward..you started it..
I'm not gona bring myself down to your level to see where you are coming from. You are a sico there is no going tough or not you need help and I feel bad for you get lost.
shut the copulation up! I agree Juan isn't bad, this all started when idiotic morons such as yourself started firing angry comments at me when I wouldnt agree Juan is better than Paco de Lucia, don't you get how pathetic and uneducated that viewpoint is? Juan is not bad, but that isn't saying he's a 'god', deductively speaking that's illogical right? nonce brains
WHY DON'T YOU GUYS RESPOND WITH A BETTER VIDEO THIS TIME YOUR HINESS AND LET EVERYBODY KNOW WHAT YOU ARE MADE OF? WHAT YOU THINK Utube PEOPLE? DON"T YOU THINK THIS IS FARE & BETTER STATEMENT THAN WISHING THESE GUYS HOLD HANDS & JUMP OFF LONDON BRIDGE? Hey some people just love and admire Juan why can't you guys understand and live with it?
it's uncivilized and unlawful that's why guys like Paco de Lucia, Juan Martin and others never do it they have musicianship respect & artistic attitude they're stronger and better people they're gentlemen they let their action talk for them. So like you've been asked so many times,
Listen you...OK! No more verbal abuse here. Regardless of what you may say or think that's what people are getting "Juan is bad" Nobody ever said he is better or worth than any one, even if they did, still you can't make it your business and engage in an unfair practice it's not right,
. They are amazed & very jealous with Juan's fame and success & can't stand listening to his followers & admirers. They should all shut the fuck up and go suck Juan's dick for beer money. Juan Martin doesn't give a flying fuck to them or their comment or their ratings.
All these arrogant assholes are a few low life guitarists some may be local I can even name them who are absolutely NOBODY who hide behind # of different phony names. You can tell how busy they are in real life by counting the # of their stupid bull shit comments in Juan's or his follower's videos soon they are gonad have to hire a bitch to this for them. They are waiting to see where did Juan shit so they can sit down and eat.
On Bulerias by Ricardo Andalus from "obiedx" a young aficionado learning by Juan's method, I saw this comment from "dantesque1"
"I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW PRECISLY WHAT YOU ALL HAVE AGAINST JUAN MARTIN, HE IS NOT BAD FOR GOD SAKE!!! I DON'T GET IT!!! I don't blame you sir, nobody gets it & we all hate it but let me tell you what's going on because I'm familiar with UK flamenco.

ive made my point and stood up for the true artists..Ps unlike other commentators I am willing to accept Juan is Spanish, but his music still sucks..

i have never met a great musician who has your anger. its only the mediocre ones who seem to be so full of hate. Maybe you are not expressing yourself fully with your music. Have you tried fishing or martial arts? It might help you to chill the fuck out, find some peace, and maybe even become an artist.

Olé maestro.
We all know that he is not Paco, but so what?
Thanks for your music!
Flamenco is about feelings, el duende está ahí, a veces aparece en un concierto y a veces no.

hi - yes i've seen juan play live here in uk - he was ok. i can't say he was fab cos i thought he wasn't. he lacked so much that a true flamenco player has. this tune incoporating the amount of wild tapping on the soundboard is just a way for juan to create a unique style of his own and nothing more. I totally agree with vincent paco IS much better and even he doesnt need to do all the tapping to sell his music. Juan definately lacks passion

all those who defend Juan as not technically up there but having the 'feeling' think again..if he had proper duende and taste in his playing it wouldn't matter he can't even play a basic Paco de LUcia solo correctly..but he doesn't his duende is inferior just as his technique..poor bastard
vincent4500 3 years ago
You are like an empty drum the harder the hit the louder you sound. You have been asked several times to post a video, but never addressed the issue nothing but shying away from it do something +ive vessel Johnny good fellow don't just be a big mouth. Why don't you admit what it really is that you have against Juan?! Nobody has any respect for ghosts like you some people hate you so much so bad.

Ok i have a confession ..he raped me.. or to be precise he raped my ears with his infernally inferior irritating poor mans flamenco..
vincent4500 3 years ago
Who's forcing u to listen to Juan? Why're u everywher Juan/his fans are? What u mean"I accept Juan is spanish"? Eazy, who are u? Who cares? Are u insane? U haven't proved any point but making a lot of enemies. U are the one who's trying to rape Juan's reputatoion & he's been very patient about it evryone else would get a lawyer and teach u the lessons u've missed in life.Juan is a tuf guy someone told me u've been rejected by Juan as an student who coulden't play a simple 12 bit compas. Be real.

Learn how to do the rumba rhythym. That's the most impressive part of the song...the individual notes are pretty simple and you can find them in many rumbas.

i don't no how i can play good but no were like juan
perrycostello 3 years ago
Exactly right DerDrache. Its the rumba technique that most be learned. I play Juan's Rumba Del Dia Nueve and the notes are basically the same as this rumba. It's the rhythm and timing the differs. Good point.

I'm back, where is the ignorant and cowardly hypocrite 'Firooz'? I agree Juan is insane, for a start he passes himself off as a guitar God when he's not even as good a player as Paco de Lucia's dog..Paco is a GOd..now all you uneducated shitheads listen "Juan is MEDIOCRE, he should be in the dictionary instead of the word 'MEDIOCRe' it would make it clearer in meaning..now go learn some basic strumming flamenco ignoramuses..
vincent4500 3 years ago
Vincent, you have an agressive and angry tone in your comments. Maybe you just don't understand flamenco guitar. You think it's all about showing of and see who has the best technique in his right hand with all the golpe's and rasguados. True flamenco is the sound of it. I've been a classical guitarist for 7 years and after that I started flamenco with juan martin's video's. He's one of the true artists in flamenco and there is no need to say he sucks just because you like paco de lucia

i;ve played flamenco for 13 yrs and studied with some of the top guitarists in the country, i moved on from JUan Martin crap 10 yrs ago..you maybye a classical guitarist but what you're saying tells me you know shit about flamenco..go back to weak rasguedo and girl like picado numb nuts..i'm showing what you all lack..passion..and thats reflected in my playing you cold, uneducated child in flamenco terms..
vincent4500 3 years ago
Ok. tough guy, I'm not saying I'm the best guitar player that there i, but if you're so ful; of yourself post up a video, maybe I'll give in.
meanleaner 3 years ago
Whoever you are give up you are not getting anywhere because you don't show a sign of artistic decency never mind ability nothing but acting like a drunk bam. Some one who has rehearsed with the bests in UK, been playing for 13 years should be able to come up with something some kind of practice to back up his preach!! What is it that scares you and makes you feel so insecure what are you hiding from why are you so scared from your real self.
celmondo 3 years ago
Miss me? Do you have anything else to do in life other than bullshit? What reflects in your playing? Where's your playing? What an obnoxious dug bark! You are Paco's dog. Even Paco de Lucia or Tomatito would probably want to slap you around. Don't get me wrong I love those guys so much that I would probably take a bullet for them but it's just you! What a disgracing human! Go to hell don't make any more enemies. Go ahead I gave you enough reasons to sewer and go through the roof. Lose my name.

I just say, this. God forbid any of us were ever good enough to get on TV or release a DVD, there would be so many plain haters out there who would crucify us. I don't know any other form of music that inspires such bile and hatred and plain snobbery. Leave the poor guy alone it's all just hype about being the best etc, good publicity you don't believe all those WHO stories or Rolling Stone tales do you. It's all about hype. Leave the poor man be.
superlikenintendo 4 years ago 3
You know, I've noticed that too. I really love the sound of flamenco, and I've been considering learning it seriously for a long time now, but my biggest turn-off has been the public that it generally tends to attract. I've never seen so much hate toward musicians in any other genre...

Vincent and others... I just believe that we should not compare Artists in the first place. Art is greater than to be compared. Juan or Paco De lucia or paco pena all have tried hard a lifetime, and each have significant differences I believe. I just respect any artist. C.Cazalse (Great Spanish Violinist) once said " People say I play music as smooth as a bird sings. I wish they knew that how hard it is for the bird to sing each song" . ;)

Good for you he is a very good teacher & a very honest man doesn't pay attention to his enemies. Please tell him Firooz from 70s said Hi. There are wondering losers behind any successful man.

shut the copulation up! I agree Juan isn't bad, this all started when idiotic morons such as yourself started firing angry comments at me when I wouldnt agree Juan is better than Paco de Lucia, don't you get how pathetic and uneducated that viewpoint is? Juan is not bad, but that isn't saying he's a 'god', deductively speaking that's illogical right? nonce brains
vincent4500 4 years ago
WHY DON'T YOU GUYS RESPOND WITH A BETTER VIDEO THIS TIME YOUR HINESS AND LET EVERYBODY KNOW WHAT YOU ARE MADE OF? WHAT YOU THINK Utube PEOPLE? DON"T YOU THINK THIS IS FARE & BETTER STATEMENT THAN WISHING THESE GUYS HOLD HANDS & JUMP OFF LONDON BRIDGE? Hey some people just love and admire Juan why can't you guys understand and live with it?
firooz123 4 years ago 2
it's uncivilized and unlawful that's why guys like Paco de Lucia, Juan Martin and others never do it they have musicianship respect & artistic attitude they're stronger and better people they're gentlemen they let their action talk for them. So like you've been asked so many times,
firooz123 4 years ago 2
Listen you...OK! No more verbal abuse here. Regardless of what you may say or think that's what people are getting "Juan is bad" Nobody ever said he is better or worth than any one, even if they did, still you can't make it your business and engage in an unfair practice it's not right,

. They are amazed & very jealous with Juan's fame and success & can't stand listening to his followers & admirers. They should all shut the fuck up and go suck Juan's dick for beer money. Juan Martin doesn't give a flying fuck to them or their comment or their ratings.
celmondo 4 years ago 3
All these arrogant assholes are a few low life guitarists some may be local I can even name them who are absolutely NOBODY who hide behind # of different phony names. You can tell how busy they are in real life by counting the # of their stupid bull shit comments in Juan's or his follower's videos soon they are gonad have to hire a bitch to this for them. They are waiting to see where did Juan shit so they can sit down and eat.

On Bulerias by Ricardo Andalus from "obiedx" a young aficionado learning by Juan's method, I saw this comment from "dantesque1"
"I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW PRECISLY WHAT YOU ALL HAVE AGAINST JUAN MARTIN, HE IS NOT BAD FOR GOD SAKE!!! I DON'T GET IT!!! I don't blame you sir, nobody gets it & we all hate it but let me tell you what's going on because I'm familiar with UK flamenco.

He's okay technically, but he can't seem to do one of the most important things in flamenco - stay in time. Staying in constant time is one of the first things any flamenco guitarist must learn.
