A musical horse ride

One of the most creative musicians of the evergreen era is undoubtedly O P Nayyar jee. And the horse-riding rhythmn in some of his songs, is simply magical. If you hum songs like Maang ke saath tumhara, or Aankho hi aankho mein ishaara ho gayaa, you'd instantly know what rhythmn I'm referring to. It's simply such a cheerful beat that anyone would automatically start swaying to it, without any conscious effort.
This rhythm is brought out very well on the PSR-295 as OffBeat Style (Style No: 006). Simply start this rhythmn and see the number of songs that you can think of. Long forgotten numbers will automatically start coming to mind. That's the power of the horse-riding beat.

Also try the variants by toggling the A/B button and with ACMP ON and
pressing some chords.
