"Turn Up De Heat" is a soca tune that focuses on typical soca rhythms. The double seconds and triple guitars have a consistent strumming pattern throughout the entire piece. The whole steel band can work on these rhythms together. The drum set uses a standard soca rhythm at Letter B and a reverse soca rhythm at Letter C. There are sixteenth notebased rhythms in the tenor line at Letter C. The pattern is repetitive and can be learned very quickly through rhythm exercises. Letter A and Letter F use the same phrases. I would recommend working on these parts together in rehearsal.
