Thread: Music with Lots of "Tick/Tock/Lock" Accents

Wow, that title is pretty vague, I guess, but it's all I could think of.

In my Level 2 class, I'm putting together a lesson plan where we'll cover movements where you can do small to tiny accents. For example, like a hip drop (often done on the double doum of the saiidi rhythm) where you drop partway down, stop, then drop the rest of the way down. Or the vertical chest circle "locks" often done in drum solos. Basically the idea is to work on starting and stopping these small, graduated moves on command to fit the music.

I'm looking for a non-drum solo song that would have a lot of these kid of accents. I've got a fairly good song collection, but would be willing to purchase on iTunes if someone has a suggestion for something I don't have that's available there. The class is tomorrow, so I don't have time to order a CD.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated - I know I can find something in my collection, but I'm having a hard time drilling down on the perfect song.

how about
etdalla ala kefak?
sometimes spelled dalla or dallaa
btw, does anyone have a good translation of this? can't find it

Shik Shak Shok? Or is that too drum solo like?

Some thing like that is just what I'm looking for. However, my student troupe is actually doing a choreo to that song, and my Level 2 class is half troupe. I don't want them getting distracted/distracting others by being tempted to bust out the choreo moves.
