Friday’s groove

2 May 2008 214 views No Comment

A groove to work on. It’s a 5/4 two bars almost basic rythm, focused on the tuplet of the second bar. Good for practicing how to ‘stretch’ the time, that is a funky, heavy groove, with a single tuplet. Look at the hi-hat: cymbals slightly open, a strong rock accent accent on the downbeat .

Last, and audio: is not the groove written down in the sheet, but the feel is similar (hi-hat e.g.)
