Don (mister) Pedro López García was the beginner of the seis mapeyé. (Each kind of seis has the name of the person or the town that created it.) Don Pedro was known by the nickname "Peyo" or "Peyé". People liked very much to hear him singing, so when he stopped singing they asked for more: "¡Más, Peyé!" (meaning "More, Peyé!"). In Puerto Rico they usually supress the final "s" in almost all the words when they are talking. So, that's how the saying: ¡Ma', Peyé! turned into "mapeyé". That's how the "seis mapeyé" got its name. The seis is the spinal chord of the Puerto Rican rural music. Its origins come through the local variations of the Andalusian (from Andalucía, Spain) music. A cuatro, a guitar, and a guiro accompany a singer in the interpretation of the seis. Over sixty kinds of seises have been identified. Some are named after the town where they began to be interpreted, like seis bayamonés, seis fajardeño, seis cayeyano, etc. Others have been named by their choreography, like seis chorreao, seis zapateao, seis bombeao, etc. Others have been named by other characteristics, like seis con décimas, seis tumbado, seis del juez, etc. Others have been named after their author or developer, like seis de Andino, seis La Enramada, and seis mapeyé. The seis mapeyé has been associated with the slow or modified "rumba flamenca". The popular singer Ramito was the first singer that recorded and brought the seis mapeyé to the radio, though Pedro López García (Peyé) was the creator of this kind of seis. credit: Rosa. Thanks!
