Groove is your heartbeat. It is feel, swing, and flow. You can notate rhythm, but you can’t notate groove. It cannot be conjured. It is a living, breathing, propulsive manifestation of rhythm. This blog is in its service.

About Me
- Ely Delman
- I'm a journalist living in the U.S. by way of Venezuela, Costa Rica, and the Dominican Republic. I received my B.A. from Bowdoin College and my master's degree in journalism from Syracuse University's Newhouse School. I worked as an editorial intern at Spin Magazine, publishing an album review in a recent issue. I've also written for RollingStone.com. Film and album reviews will be the focus of this blog, along with occasional musings on literature, politics, and life in exile. I enjoy go, flat fifths, double plays, and modal scales.
