VIVA PERU CARAJO ALEX ACUNA UN VERDADERO MAESTRO Y DEL MERITITO PERU FELICIDADES PERUANOS POR SER DUENOS DE ESTE PORTENTO MUSICAL SE LOS DICE UN SALVADORENO DESDE PHOENIX ARIZONA EL VIEJO BRENES ,,,
@gonadiator Alex is one of the most organic sounding musical persons in the planet. It's not about the chops for him. It's the real deal. Truly one of the greatest condero and drummer of our time.
I mean no disrespect to any body,but Latin music is no the same as other kinds of music.This guy is playing what comes out of his soul.You guys wish you could do what this guy does.Playing drums in the same pattern for 30 songs it's easy because its something you learn and practice the same all the time,but playing latin jazz,latin percussion is very different.A lot of you guys are stock thinking drums are only to play rock music and bang them as hard as you can.YOU ARE VERY WRONG!!!
Jejeje saludos a toda la banda que le gusta ver a buenos maestros mi comentario nada mas es que como lo deja bien en claro este hombre es uno de los mejores percusionistas yo creo que de los mejores 3 se que no es un secreto ni es el hilo negro pero una casa personal si puedo decir y siempre lo eh dicho es mejor ejecutando todo lo referente a la percusion menos lo que es la bateria en si... sean timbales djembes, cogas, tumbadoras, bongos,cajones peruanos cencerros claves todo menos la traka.
Amazing combinations MAESTRO ! Diffrent (strange) setting by the congas and the percussions / but its prob. confortabel 4 U ... ;) Thx ! Acuna & Thx ! solosolos
I had a clinic with Alex years ago. Trust me... This guy could play circles around most rock 'legends' - because most of those guys play 'linear' and they never bothered to extend their minds to poly style thinking...even the great Bozzio cannot hold a candle to Heratio Hernandez because he plays linear ostinato style which is cool and original...but still limited and linear - like most drummers out there.
How can you say this guy blows, master percussionist and drummer started playing with Elvis Presley and has recorded on hundreds of albums most recently the new Star Trek Movie. He is soloing how can you say theres no beat in what he is playing are you even a musician? @GoofyLongBoarder455

Hi-hat is on Rumba Clave and bass drum going along with it in latin rhythm while soloing... any more questions?

There's no beat in anything he plays - boom cha? really? Goofy?
Monster chops period
Kevin Ragsac It would probably take you decades to understand the "beat', so let go, and enjoy, yes, monster chops :)
