The feel
A swing with tom-tom groove in 4/4 around 210 BPM. It's fast — economy of motion is everything; speed comes from relaxation, not force.
What to watch
- •Lock the shuffle triplet; the #1 mistake is letting it straighten out as you speed up.
- •Advanced: isolate the single hardest bar and loop it slowly before ever playing along.
