Box Car Racer YouTube Lessons Sheet Music
"Adaptations" are transcriptions I've made where the song either had no drum part or a programmed part that I mimicked and/or embellished.
I used to notate the hi-hat as an X on the top space before changing it to an X on top of the top line, so you may encounter either version depending on the transcription you're looking at (you will not encounter both versions within the same song). If in doubt, use your ears and see what they tell you.
Some songs include a variety of cymbals like splashes and chinas. If there are any notations you have questions about, don't be afraid to ask!
This legend from one of the Numbers books should provide some clarity on most of the notation, although it has the hi-hat on the top space and the splash cymbal on top of the top line. This won't always be the case (outside of the Numbers transcriptions) so remember to use your ears!
