Thank you! That song sounds like it’s close to a triplet swing to me, with maybe some of the notes a little straighter. If you want to find the exact groove, I’d recommend cutting out 1-2 measures in a DAW and rebuilding the drums by looking at the transients in the waveform!

I had a question about shakers in afro-pop or modern afro-fusion as they sometimes like to call it
taking a song like (Gbona-Burna Boy) for example ..
i think the shakers and most of the song as actually swung to a septuplet swing i think but being over a clave gives it a completely different flavor.. do you think it’s a septuplet swing that these african shaker loops use or is it something with less constraints and a abit more flexible you reckon?
