In Irish traditional music, a slide (Irish: sleamhnán) is a tune type in 128 akin to, and often confused with, a single jig.
Slides are played mostly in the Sliabh Luachra region of Munster province in southwest Ireland, but originate from quadrilles.
Furthermore, the pace is quicker than single jigs, often around 150bpm.
[2][3] While single jigs are often danced solo by step dancers, slides are usually danced in groups by set dancers, sometimes in sets with polkas.
