- Polyrhythm and cross-rhythms: Layering different subdivision groupings (e.g., 3:2, 5:4) across limbs to create rhythmic tension while maintaining a steady pulse underneath.
- Polymeter: Holding one repeating cycle against another metric length to create shifting accents and phrases that realign over measures.
- Metric modulation: Using a pivot subdivision to change perceived tempo while preserving the relationship between subdivisions—an essential tool for smooth tempo shifts and complicated transitions.
- Odd-grouping phrasing: Grouping 16th-note subdivisions into odd lengths (5s, 7s, 11s) to craft interesting fills and grooves without losing time.
- Limb independence and orchestration: Assigning independent rhythmic roles to each limb — e.g., hi-hat ostinato, syncopated snare pattern, floated bass drum — to build polyrhythmic textures.
