mini-master class on the 4/4 shuffle from days past....
to spice up the basic 4-on-the-four time signature, toss in a shuffle, after listening to or recalling the following songs...
1) what is the effect of this treatment of 4/4, what feels different?
2) who drives it in the song, is this unusual for a pop song?
3) how would this change your approach to dancing, if you were compelled to get on the dance floor, from normal 4/4 songs?
4) does the shuffle always lead to a song narrating a badass lifestyle? Is this too small a sample size from classic tunes?
5) what other pop songs use this effect?
