Practice notes
The classic bossa groove: the kick plays the two-feel ("1, and-of-2, 3, and-of-4"), the sidestick plays a two-bar bossa clave, and the hat keeps soft eighths. The clave is the song — learn it by clapping it first.
The style reference names an influence only; this groove is an original pattern.
