THE BEAT

One bar, and 27% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 17-19, 29-35 and 56-62 -- 27% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

Questions

What BPM is 10's?

55 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.

Is 10's hard to play on drums?

56 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how often it moves around the kit. The beat itself is 46 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

63 bars, about 4:35 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 31 exercises over 9 sittings, about 24 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in 10's?

9 fills to learn, played 11 times: bars 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 28 and 5 more.
