Bulerías [180 bpm]


 

 

Bulerías [180 bpm] A basic bulerías rhythm, played here with cajón and palmas in "twelves." This metronome accents the 12, 3, 6, 8, and 10 beats, which gives it a more "traditional" bulerías feel. This is a great place to start if you're still trying to get your head (and fingers) around counting and playing por bulería. More modern rhythm playing will often move the six beat over one, i.e. play the second half of the compás as 7,8, 10 (instead of 6, 8, 10, as above). As a tool for learning the compás, however, you may find this more simple and straightforward rhythm easier.
