Offhand

This turned up on an old groove tape the other day. It’s a simple one-bar thing in straight time with a basic eighth-note ride pattern. The ghost notes give it a nice hypnotic feel, setting off the interplay between kick and snare accents.

The snare on the a of 4 is actually played as two 32nd notes — a ruff into the next downbeat on the kick.
