It works for me!
Hi @Lanfranco !
Itās an amazing journey that i started many years ago. Now i stopped a little bit, because being a daddy and developing zynthian almost takes all my time, but i hope to continue my journey some day, jeje! Hopes! 
This resumes quite nicely the main binary (4/4) clave patterns:
I would say ārumberosā donāt make a difference between 2/3 or 3/2, with the singer starting the phrases in the 2 or the 3, following his feeling of the moment or the āquintoā phrases, etc. Itās very fluid and the distinction is more an academic thing.
In the other hand, 2/3 or 3/2 distinction is quite important when speaking of āclave de sonā. Salsa, for instance, always have a 2/3 feeling while āsonā normally have 3/2 feeling. Sometimes, the feeling can change when the montuno enters, going from 3/2 to 2/3 feeling, although the clave is normally not broken in the way.
Regarding the last one, itās first time i see this āchitlins con carneā title, but itās without a doubt the samba (bossa) clave.
BTW, if you click the zynthian āaudio demoā, you can listen a sublime example of 12/8 clave, from Papito Angarica with the Abbilona group. Well it begins in 4/4 with a long pray and you must wait for the āchangeā to ātui-tuiā, that is anticipated several times. Crazy music! As i told you, i can be quite boring 
Cheers

Really good, but we are used to now with your productions 
While talking of claves, Music for pieces of wood is one of my favorite from Steve Reich

I wanted to record this song by Mina to try to use Waves Harmony in the choruses, on the voiceā¦ but it was so bad that in the end I recorded the countervoice directlyā¦ itās uselessā¦ there is no machine that can match human capabilitiesā¦ even my meager abilitiesā¦

Another āgameā on this rainy day and 12 degrees despite Julyā¦
I recorded this wonderful song by P.F.M. I apologize for the voiceā¦ mine barely reaches the F#5 that this song requiresā¦
but this time I used a REAL bass and guitarā¦ so bass and guitar players forgive my playingā¦ it was a game.

Excellentā¦ Now how about Celebration?
Eā Festa (original title)ā¦ itās one of my favorite songsā¦ I do the Moog parts and I created a very similar sound with Arturiaās MiniMoogā¦ but who can play the bass and guitar for me??? Iām a terrible guitaristā¦and bassistā¦ and vocalistā¦ and pianistā¦
Dear @wyleu here you are servedā¦
I used MIDI guitar, bass and drums because I wouldnāt be able to do something like thisā¦ I also recorded the piano parts taking 4 or 8 or max 16 barsā¦ I wouldnāt be able to do it all together. I put an Arturia piano on the solo piano partā¦ The Moog is my beloved Arturia MiniMoogā¦ It took me two days and a night to record itā¦ As usual, I didnāt make it exactly the same but I put a bit of my soul into itā¦ very littleā¦ 
Eā festa āCelebrationā (P.F.M) REMIXED because you couldnāt hear the guitar and the piano was too loud
UPLOAD!!!
The live song is at 140 BPMā¦ so I sped it upā¦ I admit in all honesty that at 140 BPM I could only have done the Moog partā¦ Not the pianoā¦

Thank you very much @le51ā¦ I donāt feel like Iāve played this last PFM songā¦ I recorded it in piecesā¦ too difficult for me. The only part I can do without mistakes is the Moog partā¦ The rhythmic piano at that speed (have you seen my UPLOAD?) I canāt hold it.
The song on You Tube is from the āBanco del mutuo soccorsoā. one of the many historic Italian groups (listen to AREA).
I love these groups not because they are Italianā¦ but because good Italian music (only the good one) is contaminated by a thousand influences, from Arab, Spanish culture etc etc. all peoples who brought something good beyond the warā¦ Naples is an explosive mixture of all the cultures that have passed through there and in my opinion it is the āOmbelico Mundiā of music. Also listen to Italian jazz musiciansā¦ feel the Mediterranean in their sounds. Less technique and more heart and soul.
