THE BEAT

One bar, and 35% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 1-8, 10-15 and 25-31, and 1 more place -- 34.6% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

Questions

What BPM is 6?

152 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. The room plays it at any tempo from a quarter of that up to the written one, against the record where the record can follow.

Is 6 hard to play on drums?

50 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 48 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

81 bars, about 2:07 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 26 exercises over 7 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

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

How many fills are in 6?

7 fills to learn, played 12 times: bars 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 49 and 6 more.
