Here is a transcript of the video:
There's a part in this song where my feet go from playing double bass to actually switching my left foot over to the hihat and switching between my kick drum and my hihat. And I did this in the studio because I wanted to accent the upbeat of this rhythm that we play. The rhythm is in seven. And the rhythm is (hand tapping). So the hihat would be (hand tapping). The hihat actually switches from the upbeat to the downbeat because the time signature is counted in quarter notes.
