A modern hi-hat. A hi-hat (hihat, high-hat, etc.) is a combination of two cymbals and a pedal, all mounted on a metal stand. It is a part of the standard drum kit used by drummers in many styles of music including rock, pop, jazz, and blues. [1]
Hi-NRG (pronounced "high energy") [2] is a genre of uptempo disco or electronic dance music (EDM) that originated during the late 1970s and early 1980s..

When a string instrument makes the rhythm (rhythm guitar, banjo), all four beats of the measure are played by identical downstrokes. [original research?] In reggae drumming, the bass drum usually hits on the third beat but sometimes drummers play four on the floor.

Note that the standard bell pattern is the clave but with and pickups before the first and third notes, and the hi-hat marks the main beats (quarter-notes).
