ABOUT THIS DRUM PART

How to play 青道 on drums

103 bars, 5:21, at 75 BPM: slow enough that every note is exposed. Crash, hi-hat, snare, mid tom and kick and nothing else.

56 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.

The beat

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 15-22, 31-37 and 56-62, and 1 more place -- 30.2% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

What the course does

It cuts the song into 38 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.

  1. The grooves the song is built on -- H, C -- 3 exercises, about 29 minutes. Open above.
  2. The grooves the song is built on -- I -- 5 exercises, about 27 minutes.
  3. Bars 3-27 -- 6 exercises, about 33 minutes.
  4. Through Part I and the Chorus 2 -- 7 exercises, about 28 minutes.
  5. Through Part I and Part Q -- 3 exercises, about 28 minutes.
