Kick The World Before Me

Slip jig · 9/8 · E dorian

Kick The World Before Me is a traditional Irish slip jig in nine-eighth time and the key of E dorian, though its exact composer and historical origins remain unrecorded. As a slip jig, it features a characteristic bounding, triplet-based rhythm that naturally drives the dance forward with a lively and energetic character. Because specific historical associations are lacking, musicians typically approach the tune with a focus on its fluid phrasing and traditional ornamentation.
