Thanks for the feedback. For this reason, I played the clave at the beginning. Most of the notes are upbeat, so the 1 is never really played. For reference, the two slaps at the beginning of the phrase wrap around the 1, in other words before and after the one. The third is right before the three, and the bass note with the right hand is right before the four. Thanks!
This is interesting for sure. Unfortunately I have no idea where the downbeat is. Not a complaint, just an observation
