Lid Flipping

from What are the Odds? by Dennis Winge

about

This tune was very fun to write because I had been playing around the Partido Alto groove from Brazil for a while when I discovered that Brazilian musicians commonly reverse the ‘clave.’ This means there is no actual downbeat on the “1” beat of every 2-bar cycle. I subsequently spent time digesting the tune “Partido Alto” made famous by Airto Moreira and also covered by Azymuth. If you are curious about the groove, check out the YouTube video I made about it for my guitar school Guitar Lessons Ithaca.
