THE BEAT

One bar, and 8% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 100-103, 106-109 and 112-115 -- 8.3% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

Questions

What BPM is 2201?

180 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. At that speed the thirty-second notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.

Is 2201 hard to play on drums?

62 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 itself is 59 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

201 bars, about 5:57 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 76 exercises over 23 sittings, about 26 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 2201?

13 fills to learn, played 23 times: bars 14, 15, 31, 49, 53, 57 and 17 more.
