I'm a bit rusty with theory, but I'd say 5/4 cut time - like the theme to Mission: Impossible, but at a quicker tempo.


5/4 sounds about right to me too, I say waiting for some thoery buff to shoot us all down

Likely 5/8 (= 5/4 cut). That's how I'd transcribe it.

They could've done 10/8, though. Or 5n/8, where n is a positive integer. Up to them, but you're all correct.

Thanks, now I have to google and understand what "cut time" is :>

No, apparently it's called Swaffeling... I recall that from a particularly insane IRC chat some months ago. Yes, Morten, it's your fault. :P
