oh! i get it

Between prep for Thanksgiving, I'm transcribing and arranging stuff written earlier this month. My spare braintime is filled by that and with listening to other music in new ways and thiking things like:

THE TRIPLETS AREN'T REALLY TRIPLETS. THAT'S IT. They're beats two through four of four sets of sixteenth beats with the first beat implied, so noticed by its absence. It's GENIUS. Because they ALSO use true triplets on beats, but drop the first strike on the backbeat, so it's <space>-2-3-4-5-6 so it sounds like a five-set fast but late, so it sounds like it's fifths against a beat instead. And the two patterns bounce off each other (and off of... two? trivial variations) to keep you off guard.

Anyway, I'm pretty certainly not making 50 minutes in 30 days, but I'm not giving up.

Oh, and, Grocery Trip 1 and Costco Trip 1 complete; material is on-site; Thanksgiving 2007 has officially begin - as of Monday. -_^
