"Elektrik" by King Crimson from the 2003 "Power to Believe" album
Transcribed by Jeremy Lewis  oddfellow101 at hotmail dot com

Elektrik is a fairly complex song.  It contains several different time signatures and I will let
you listen and figure out the rhythms.  Throughout the "verses" Fripp and Belew play similar lines
but are third apart and start at different points.  For instance, in the first "verse" Belew plays
on the down-beats and Fripp plays on the off-beats giving a delay effect.  For the intro, I have
transcribed the two guitar parts together to give a sense of the rhythm, but for the rest of the
song, I've gone all the way through Belew's part and then all the way through Fripp's.  If you have
any questions, comments, or corrections, e-mail me at oddfellow101 at hotmail dot com.

Intro:
Through synth giving a clarinet-like sound

Belew's part

The next 3 lines make up Belew figure 1.  I will refer to this later.

|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

At this next 4/4 section Belew "echoes" Fripp by playing this on the off-beats (one eighth note behind Fripp).
I will call these two lines Belew figure 2.  The bracketed part will be referred to later in the song.
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---18---------20---------16---------18---------14---------16---------12---------------------------|
|---------18---------16---------14---------16---------12---------14---------10-12-----------------|

|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------|----------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------|----------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------|----------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------|----------------|

Repeat Belew figure 1, but shift back half a beat to echo Fripp's down-beats.

Then repeat Belew figure 2, substituting this for the bracketed measure:
|-10-------------|
|-------11-9-----|
|-----------------|
|-----------------|
|-----------------|
|-----------------|

Then play this line on the down beats to lead into the next section.
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|16---------18---------14---------16---------12---------14---------10------------------------------|
|------16---------14---------12---------14---------10---------12---------8----10------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Next is the part where the song really kicks in.  Belew and Fripp are in sync rhythmically and Fripp is
harmonizing Belew's part.  The rhythm is alternating measures of 6/8 and 7/8, but you will have to listen
to time the guitar part correctly.  This is what Belew plays.

At this part, use a volume pedal to make each note swell.  The part is in 4/4 with Belew playing on the down-beats.

Once again, play down-beats in 4/4, making each note swell with the volume pedal.
|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|18----16--------------14----12--------------10----8------------6----4-----------2------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------1------------|
|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

With distortion and heavy vibrato throughout the next part (4/4).  The note in parenthesis is a natural harmonic
that Belew bends down with the whammy bar.

|-----------------------------------------------------------6----4----2-----------6----------------------|

|---------------------------------------------5----3----1-------------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------6----4----2---------------------------------------------------------------|
|---3----1-------7----5----3-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Here, sustain these heavily distorted chords the first time you hit them and cut them short the second time.

|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|6------------------------6---------------------------2----------------------------2---------------------|
|6------------------------6---------------------------2----------------------------2---------------------|
|4------------------------4---------------------------0----------------------------0---------------------|

Now turn the distortion off and play this in 7/8.
|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

These two 4/4 lines will be called Fripp figure 1.  Play them on the down-beats.  I will refer to the bracketed
measure later.

Now play this on the off-beats, still in 4/4.
