Aye cuh people talk down about Florida but All the different cultures I've been exposed the food the music the ladies it's been a blessing for me ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
Seeing this really makes me happy. I’m an American born Dominican so I always grew up around bachata and merengue but always gravitated more towards American music. Now that I’m older, I want to get in touch with my roots and maybe play some of these tunes for the family one day.
Lo mejor de nuestro país Dios me regaló la oportunidad de conocer y tocar junto a este excelente ser humano para mí fue director de varios grupos dokicsnos de grande escala le deseo múltiples éxitos bless my broth
This is amazing! More of this please: maybe a video on Cuban guitar styles, and perhaps another on Saharan guitar music. Yasser is incredible, what a fantastic groove and sound!
Gracias a la inmigración dominicana hemos podido tener un contacto mas cercano aqui en Uruguay a la cultura del merengue y la bachata. Esas guitarras son geniales. Gracias Yasser Tejeda por compartir tanta riqueza cultural y enriquecernos a todos.
I recently moved back to the states after living in the DR for 3 years. Miss the whole vibe of the country. I had a son while I was there so I definitely want him to have a strong foundation rooted in both sides. Dominican music like bachata and merengue as well as African American music like delta blues, jazz and rock n roll.its fun diving into Dominican music and history.
I had the same type of experience where I wouldn't even think of playing "popular" or roots music from my country until I grew up and started expanding my playing and as well as my ears (something that I think happens to every musician in every country and culture), thats when I felt connected to the music that was playing Yasser, just hearing that playing coming from that strat tone and the combinations of latin (especially afrodominican) and hard modern stuff I just felt enamored, thats when I started going back and now thats one of the genres I play the most and what connects me the most to my roots, Yasser, mis respetos!
Love these styles which are literally foreign to me as a Texas born metal guitar player so having fun learning. Love the DR so it takes me back there when I hear it. Thanks for the video!
Joan Soriano is one of my favorite 2nd wave bachateros- he bridges the gap between the shared heritage of Dominican bachata and bachata hatienne. iASO records is making sure that island artists are paid fairly for their work - and is working to train the next generation of bachata musicians with their Bachata Academy.
Man,this was great!! I plan to follow up on this player, he's really inspired and inspiring! Yasser, I pray that you have good success with your music and life, I thank you for sharing of your music, culture, and love with us, sincerely, Curtis
so cool. I really believe the future of guitar is embracing the styles that we all love like rock, blues and jazz but looking for these kind of different cultures sounds.
Increíble video. Yasser es un guitartista que no sólo rescata las tradiciones, sino que sabe reconciliarlas y hacerlas sonar atemporales. Disfruté de aprender un poco de historia, también!
Compadre Yasser gracias por compartir, se que también lo haces en tú canal, pero con Reverb va a llegar a muchas más partes. Soy Colombiano y veo que muchos ritmos afro comparten varias similitudes, emigrando también vi la necesidad de tocar y mostrar más mis raises con mis gustos adquiridos. Gracias por tanta inspiración.
