About Enrique

I'm from Spain, living in London since 2016. I started to play bass when I was 18 years old. Self-taught most part of the way and a bit with a hometown little private music academy. I had the luck to have a good bunch of friends to play with. We played funk & fusion (rock, bossa, jazz...). Those styles opened me a wide variety in rhythms and metrics. Few years later I worked 10 years as a professional musician in many groups and ensembles touring around the country. Was an excellent opportunity to continue learning and playing more different styles like Latin ones: salsa, cha cha cha, samba, cumbia, etc...). I also played in a flamenco trio with 2 guitar players which introduced me to the rich harmonies and rhythms that flamenco has. In 2012 I completed a "training for trainers" course, also that very year I passed the RSL Grade 8 Bass exam and started to work in a private music academy close to my hometown. After more than 25 years playing I'm still passionate about bass and pretty sure I'll be forever.

  • When did you first develop a passion for music and your favourite instrument?

    My dad liked to put music at home on morning weekends at considerable volume.. He had an eclectic taste with a huge vinyl collection. For instance, I remember being a kid, waking up with the Four Seasons (Vivaldi), Bob Marley, Queen or AC/DC.
    My passion about Bass was "love at first glance" once I tried it. When I was 18, R.H.C.P released Blood Sugar Sex Magic and Flea playing style captivated me. After that, digging deep about Bass, Marcus Miller, Jaco pastorius, Jeff Berlin, Jeff Andrews, and more to come....I couldn't stop.
  • Is there a particular type of music or artist that you listen to on a loop without it driving you crazy?

    Every music style has good stuff and I like to swap from one to another so my "loop" has variety enough to never get fed up. Now, when I'm obsessed with a theme, I can be listening for hours, days and months and never get tired.
  • Explain to us the most difficult or riveting course you could personally give to a student of music.

    I could think a couple of them, one related to different techniques I use and another only possible with a really good music theory foundation:"Jazz, advanced music theory"
  • What do you think is the most complicated instrument to master and why?

    All instruments are complicated to master but string ones have the advantage to easily transpose from one tonality to another, guess that could answer the question but let's say Piano. Combining two hands, huge polyphony, comping and soloing at the same time. Does it sound challenging?
  • What are your keys to success?

    Hard work, perseverance, study and practice routine, being perfectionist, avoiding frustration and having a good time.
  • Name three musicians you dream of meeting in your favourite bar in the early hours of the morning. Explain why.

    Allow me to say not three but four.
    In a bar called "Heaven" I would enjoy having a drink, chatting and watching them playing together (would be the best experience!) to Miles Davis ( trumpeter ), Jaco Pastorius ( Bass player ), Paco de Lucia ( Spanish guitar player ) and Chick Corea ( Piano/keyboard player ). Four beasts which transformed and evolved music with their amazing feeling, virtuosity and creativity.
  • Provide a valuable anecdote related to music or your days at music school.

    I just was in a private music academy for a short period as I've been self-taught most of the path so my advice for beginners is grab your bass ( or the instrument you play ) and experiment with it, spend time with it. Use your ears, have fun without rules until reaching the point of curiosity about how theory works. In this way, learning with someone, school or whatever option you choose, will be like walking on an enlightenment path.
    So it was anecdotal how my colleagues at the academy used to get surprised about how fast I could get lines, walkins and grooves with the things we were taught.
  • What are the little touches that make you a Superprof in music?

    According to my students: infectious passion. Patience and comprehension, Sense of humor and being able to explain things in more than one way until it becomes clear.
