A short closed hi-hat hit, a crisp metallic tick from a drum kit used in hip hop and trap beats. Producers drop it to keep rhythm tight and add groove.

A closed hi-hat is the short, sharp tick made when two cymbals are struck together while held tightly closed, and this clip captures just that single hit in under a fifth of a second. It sounds bright, metallic and dry, with a quick attack and almost no ring or decay, like a tiny snap of metal. In a beat it works as a timekeeper, marking the pulse between kicks and snares and giving a loop its forward motion. Because it is so clean and brief, it cuts through a mix without cluttering it, adding energy, precision and a sense of swing even when used sparingly.

The hi-hat is a standard part of the modern drum kit, a pair of cymbals mounted on a stand and played with a drumstick or foot pedal. When the cymbals are held closed, the strike produces a short, dry tick rather than a long wash of sound. That closed sound became a defining element of funk, rock and later hip hop, where producers programmed it into drum machines and samplers to drive fast, rolling patterns. Today it remains a basic building block for beatmakers, used in trap, drill, lo-fi and electronic music to set tempo and create groove.

Hip hop, trap, drill, lo-fi, funk, rock and electronic music all use closed hi-hats. Producers place them on offbeats and in fast rolls to set the tempo, add groove and give a beat its sense of movement.

How do I use this hi-hat sound in a beat?

Drop it on the offbeats between kicks and snares, or repeat it in a steady pattern to build a trap or hip hop groove. Keep the volume low, vary the timing slightly for swing, and pair it with a kick and snare.
