Gypsy Jazz
Six strings and an alley are enough to invent a whole continent.
Gypsy Jazz is a style from the Smoke and Midnight family. 180 BPM, Weirdness 30, Style Influence 94.
An acoustic guitar galloping the pompe rhythm and a virtuoso solo that soars. Gypsy jazz is the bohemian elegance of Parisian cafés: fast, joyful, and dazzling.

Sample excerpt
Aprendí a tocar con dos dedos que me quedaron buenos, el resto se quemó en un incendio que no cuento. La gente dice qué lástima, y yo digo qué suerte: me obligó a inventarme una manera propia.
Toca con lo que te queda, siempre alcanza, que el estilo nace justo donde falta algo. Nadie recuerda al que lo tuvo todo, recuerdan al que se las arregló.
Workshop note — Primera persona, pretérito, resiliente. El gypsy jazz es velocidad y swing acústico: la letra debe sonar ligera aunque cuente algo duro. A 180 BPM usa frases de seis sílabas y deja el resto a la guitarra.
