Yeah, but it's not Latin in the sense of what most people concieve as Latin: Brazillian, salsa, samba...all that stuff is based off the clave rhythm. What we're doing is essentially playing Flamenco and incorporating in improvisation. This style of playing Flamenco was created by Paco de Lucia after he started working with american musicians in the late seventies (DiMeola, McClaughlin, Correyl, Chick Corea, etc).

Flamenco is based off a 12 beat cycle with accents falling on different beats...usually 3, 6, 8, 10, & 12. The accented beats would be simuliar to the down beat of 1 in European music. The beats are not always consistant, sometimes the 1/4 will get the beat, sometimes each 8th note of the triplet will be counted as a beat. Imagine 2 measures of 6/8 followed by 2 measures of 3/4...that would be one type of 12 beat cycle you might find in Flamenco. Now within those 4 measures approach beats 3 6 8 10 & 12 as down beats...sort of get the idea. Flamenco is much more exotic sounding then most latin forms.
