The feel
A instrumental funk-rock in 4/4 around 128 BPM. It moves — stay relaxed in the hands so you don't tense up and rush.
What to watch
- •Funk lives in the hi-hat and the ghosted snare — tighten those before the backbeat.
- •Advanced: isolate the single hardest bar and loop it slowly before ever playing along.
