How to play All I Need on drums

80 bars of 4/4 at a walking 88 BPM, 3:38 of playing, on crash, hi-hat, snare, kick and hi-hat foot.

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

The fills

There are no fills to speak of: the part holds one beat the whole way through.

What the course does

It cuts the song into 8 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 -- B -- 2 exercises, about 18 minutes. Open above.
  2. Through the Outro and the Outro 2 -- 3 exercises, about 29 minutes.
  3. The whole song -- 4 exercises, about 24 minutes.
