A phrase in the tune that repeats a variable number of times, and a tempo that mimics a skipping record.
The corresponding activity in the dance is some motion between the partner and the neighbor, repeated with the phrase. When the repetition stops, you may be with your partner, or with your neighbor. The tune is crooked, and the dance is a mixer.
