The first drum figure lands like a title card: hard low hits, then bright ticks and hand percussion pull the room into one stride.

The lead voice comes in close and steady, with the busy backing spread wide around her instead of stepping back.

A second vocal mass opens around the lead here. The mix gets taller, but the drum stride stays just as square.

On the held vocal turn, the rhythm stays locked while the voice stretches the top edge of the sound.

When the grouped voices return, they feel like a brighter face of the same moving block, not a break from it.

The words give way to open vocal tone, and the band does not relax; the held surface turns the same pulse into suspension.

The grouped voices come back as a compact block, clipped and bright, riding the same drum stride.

Near the end, the lead line throws longer arcs while the answering voices stay short, so the front stretches against the fixed beat.

The last hit leaves a short cloud of room sound, and then the motor finally lets go.
