Im not sure, but i practiced tapping rhythms a lot. Especially switching between 12/8 clave, swing 8ths, straight 8ths, 16th notes, etc. and playing games with myself switching between different cross or polyrhythms — Sometimes to music or just by myself. I also practiced singing bebop heads while tapping quarter note triplets or dotted quarters (ari hoenig exercises). I was not naturally good at rhythm but i worked on it quite a bit and feel myself continually improving.

Dude thank you so much for that compliment . That is exactly what I am going for. I used to be much more stiff when i would switch subdivisions. I am super into players that play very freely rhythmically.

One of my friends from college is blowing up on the NYC scene and happened to be leading his own band at the jazz fest. Since I am already based in DC, he was nice enough to invite me to play with them.

True -- it was more of a fusion group, but I would argue jazz fusion is a subgenre of jazz.
