Hola from London!

Post by adriansguitar »

Hey! my name is Adrián, originally from Barcelona, moved to London in 2006.
I'm trained as a flamenco guitarist, I play the traditional styles with dancers and in dance schools as well as functions and original bands gigs, most modern music styles, pop, latin...
Replaced Windorrgghs with Musix in 2011, then Ubuntu and Ubuntustudio for a while, now very happy with Mint + KXstudio.
Back then I was clueless about computers, is not that I know much now but I enjoy tinkering and working with mine and discovering the beautiful tools the community of foss developers make.
I use Hydrogen, Ardour, SooperLooper, Audacious, Cadence and sisters, Blender, Gimp... almost daily, and loving it.

Big hug and thank you to the community!

Adrian.
Flamenco guitarist in London.
Linux user since 2011, currently Mint with KXstudio.

I have a copy of Paco de Lucia's "Interpreta a Manuel de Falla" album (1978), and it is one of my favorite guitar albums. I also have some of the same pieces played by a classical guitarist (Christopher Parkening), and they are bland and sterile there. But in the flamenco style they are alive and intensely emotional.

Welcome to the forum! We are happy to have you here.

Hi!

Flamenco and classic guitar are my passion. It would be nice if you share your playlists and recommendations:)
