// 105 bpm, 16/16, key G minor. Source: midi.
// Generated by strudelify. One cycle = one bar.
// note: metre changes (11/16 at bar 1, 12/16 at bar 4, 10/16 at bar 5, 12/16 at bar 5, ...) are rendered on a constant 16/16 grid of one bar per cycle
// note: ch 1 "Hammond Organ" named as an organ, played on drawbar organ (its piano patch is not one)
// note: Full arrangement: all 48 bars on a 16-step grid, each part at one level. Source detail keeps the original performance.

// Notation: c3@3 lasts 3 steps · ~ is a rest · [c3,e3] is a chord · "a, b" plays two voices at once · [...]/2 spreads a riff over 2 bars.
// A part's distinct bars are riffs (A, B, C...) played in order: edit a riff to change every repeat.
