#tbt ‘Merengue’ linocut print.

Merengue was developed in the middle of the 1800s, originally played with European stringed instruments (bandurria and guitar). Years later, the stringed instruments were replaced by the accordion, thus conforming, together with the güira and the tambora, the instrumental structure of the typical merengue ensemble. This set, with its three instruments, represents the synthesis of the three cultures that made up the idiosyncrasy of Dominican culture. The European influence is represented by the accordion, the African by the tambora, which is a two-head drum, and the Taino or aboriginal by the güira.

La percusión de mi mas reciente sencillo, “La Niña Que Conoci” se grabo entre @bigga.marley y @raychinodiaz #BTS

Mi parte favorita de este proceso fue conversar sobre los ritmos de la guira y la tambora, los estilos de los guireros y tamboreros quienes nos inspiraron, para tratar de lograr algo interesante, moderno y a la vez fiel a las raíces de los ritmos, reutilizando ritmos de antes que hoy en dia no son tan comunes y combinaciones nuevas entre los dos instrumentos.
