Practice notes

Modern neo-soul drumming that bends time: the hats slip into sixteenth-note triplets mid-bar, the snare is displaced by a sixteenth in bar 2, and flams smear the backbeat. Learn each beat on its own, then glue them together slowly.

The style reference names an influence only; this groove is an original pattern.
