THE BEAT

One bar, and 21% of the song

The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 57-71 and 73-87 -- 21.3% 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 410?

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

Is 410 hard to play on drums?

60 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 41 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

145 bars, about 2:54 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 47 exercises over 15 sittings, about 24 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, 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 410?

7 fills to learn, played 8 times: bars 8, 16, 40, 48, 72, 128 and 2 more.
