Practice notes
Twelve eighth notes to the bar, felt as four slow beats of three ("ONE-and-a TWO-and-a ..."). The hat plays every eighth, the snare lands on 2 and 4. It's slow, so every note is exposed — keep the hat perfectly even.
The style reference names an influence only; this groove is an original pattern.
