yeah, it's a loose in the playing, he even drops 2 beats towards the end (I do to.) start by getting a 1 measure loop going, make that sound good by dragging up and down on the BPM setting for the clip. then drag the loop window to the next measure and move warp markers. double click on any non-warp marker to make it a warp marker. Mark one downstream first so you don't effect the rest of the sample (you'll see what I mean). Keep it simple, big jumps in the waveform usually fall on the beat, or the quarter note.

as you smooth it out you should be able to drag that 1 measure loop window anywhere and make a cool sounding riff out of it. it's like molding clay, push here, pull there.

It's getting late, I can finish it tomorrow but others might step in.

ok this was nearly there i think, need to listen again, just checked it before i went work this morning,

so long as it hits solid on the kick drum and works over 8 bars i think it should be, i had a go at it myself got most of it sorted just the end of the audio i couldnt get correct
