  • The clave is Afro-Cuban not Brazilian. Two different countries, Cuba & Brazil.

  • I was impressed with this guy until he opened his mouth...

  • @truffala Yes, son clave, similar, but Brazilian 3/2 clave displaces the last note by a 16th note (on the 2 portion), or the second note if played 2/3. But still, this guy's got good feel and nice kit too!

  • AWESOME

    

  • Actually, it's not African. It's Afro-Cuban. It is African when it's played in 6/8. From the African 6/8 came the straightening out of it in Cuba. That's when it became the 3/2 Afro-Cuban clave, or to be more specific "Son Clave". From there it became played in the reverse order, 2/3, or "Reverse Clave". 2nd Line really uses the "Reverse Clave", as the accent falls on beat 4 of the second measure. This is often mixed up. To play Second Line and make it have a lifting feel, you want to play 2/3.

  • @paradidd I wasn't meaning to refer to its origin but more emphasizing the fact that it is an element of afro-cuban music not brazilian music (something that people often mix up). Plus, I never said that he didn't sound good:)

  • @truffala It was actually African first, check your history.... Regardless, this guy sounds pretty dam good...
