How to play ANTHEM PART 3 on drums

171 bars at 205 BPM -- fast, and 3:20 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom and kick.

64 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

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 33-47, 53-55 and 57-61, and 1 more place -- 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.

What the course does

It cuts the song into 43 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 -- I -- 4 exercises, about 28 minutes.
  2. The grooves the song is built on -- N -- 3 exercises, about 26 minutes.
  3. The grooves the song is built on -- P -- 4 exercises, about 24 minutes.

Questions

What BPM is ANTHEM PART 3?

205 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 ANTHEM PART 3 hard to play on drums?

64 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 77 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

171 bars, about 3:20 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 43 exercises over 11 sittings, about 27 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid 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 ANTHEM PART 3?

11 fills to learn, played 18 times: bars 15, 16, 24, 32, 48, 62 and 12 more.
