I'm not sure what do you want to achieve musically, but perhaps
scaling durations is what you need?
For example cymr8*2/3 = a note that looks like 8th, but its actual
duration is like an 8th triplet.
Try this:
swing = \drummode { cymr4 cymr8*4/3 cymr8*2/3 cymr4 cymr8*4/3 cymr8*2/3 }
down = \drummode { \times 2/3 { bd8 sn sn } \times 2/3 { << bd hhp >>
sn sn } \times 2/3 { bd sn sn } \times 2/3 { << bd hhp >> sn sn } }
\score {
\new DrumStaff {
<<
\new DrumVoice { \voiceOne << \swing \down >> }
>>
}
}
HTH,
