Byzance Dark33IT’S ALL IN THE HIHAT…by Norbert Saemann“The hihat shapes a groove,”says MEINL Cymbal artistFelix Lehrmann. “It shapesthe character of a grooveand therefore the characterof every song.”Of course, the snare drumis widely understood as theheartbeat of the drumset, butfor the groove the hihat is themost important instrument.Imagine you are riding alongon the hihat, digging in andbearing down. You’re playingan eight note groove and allof a sudden you switch overto sixteenth note pulse. Theentire feel and character ofthe whole song would changeinstantly. This is because theanchor, to which everythingelse in the kit is tied into, thehihat, has changed.“The hihat is the number oneinstrument in the drum set.”Felix Lehrmann: If you askme, you can make a muchstronger musical statementwith the hihat than with anyother instrument on the drumset.It simply is style-definingfor every song.
