@Drumric305 That's where you're wrong, it's not about his skin color at all, it's more about the way he plays, his rhythm, el tumbao con el que toca. I'm Dominican by the way.
Can anybody tell me, is the first beat on the "2" side of the clave altered to sync with the triplet in the 12/8: instead of the first beat on the "2" side being played on the "and" of 3 when the sub-division is 1/8th notes, it is shifted slightly to the second beat of the third triplet in the 12/8? Or does it even matter and should I just go out and get a real job?
@Drumric305 You'd have to be latin or from the caribbean to understand why he's called "el negro". Doesn't necessarily have to be black to be called that way.
@Oliver311087 oh it's that stereo type thing. Yes mosts black people are known to play with a certain feel or groov. I just didn't connect the two things.
Four years later, I hope you found answers ! No, if you play a strict 2/2 or a strict 6/8 it's not the same. But the game is to go from one to the other and then play in the cracks. Latin rythms are never played really straight, that's the tough part.
The way he's playing them here, they are the same both ways. He's playing triplets over the 4/4 count so it's the same as the 12/8 rhythm. There are other ways to play claves that are different over a 4/4 (straight 8th notes) vs. 12/8 (triplet feel).
which goes to show you that technique isn't everything! Feel and being informed in the kind of music you're playing can make up for any difference in technique and in fact being musical often trumps being technically 'perfect'. That being said, I've never heard his technique getting in the way of his playing great music.
its not tha we hate travis,,its just that in every jazz,latin,funk drumming video someone has to pull out travis barker refering to him as being better,,,,and thats fucked up!!! i mean i dont go around a travis barker video just to say that buddy rich is way better...(just saying)
First of all, Horacio Hernandez is one of the best drummers in the world... secondly, to all you Travis Barker haters.... do yourself a huge favor.... listen to ENEMA OF THE STATE... and just analyze all the drum parts that he puts in there...
This is one of the best explanations of the concepts of clave rhythms I've seen. And from one of the masters as well!
Gracias Horacio por pasar tus conocimientos, y sobre todo por la sencillez que te caracteriza.
Robby Ameen and Horacio Hernandez are definitely my favorite Latin drummers. Thanks for sharing the amazing exercises!
Perfect basic lesson for modern drummers! Every drummer must see this!
This is a master lesson, Horacio is giving us la llave , one of my favorites drummers of all time

Here there is a pandore boxe of groove and technique .
Thank you so.much horacio !
I love the way clave feels in 6/8.
que gusto verte triunfando..
Does it really matter what color he is ?? How about listening & learning from what he's trying to pass on ?
@Drumric305 You'd have to be latin or from the caribbean to understand why he's called "el negro". Doesn't necessarily have to be black to be called that way.
handsome grooves - yes indeed!
Horacio it's a drummer that worths for ten. Love his accent by the way ^^
Fantastic tutorial!!!

My Brother🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽

Such an inspiring vid, thanks Horacio !
Super nice guy, met him once,autographed a video.
even if your not a drummer (like me) this is verry usefull
Just to be ok: the clave in 4/4 is not exactly the same as in 6/8...?

Clave means THE KEY right? ..
@gooneybird47 It's actually a mask, he's a green monit from the planet Moniton
interesting lesson! keep it up
What's the name of this clave?
Rumba 3-2
gracias ......
The old Real Feel are the best practice pads but the new Evans...
I've always thought he was doing a different clave or something.. It's just a 3-2...
muy importante
@nengstro yeah you mentioned him
Someone mentioned Travis Barker in a comment to a Horatio video , that was funny
この人がやると、簡単そうに見えるのが怖い…
実演で問題なく出来るようになるまで、どの程度練習するんだろうね。
