THE BEAT

One bar, and 18% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 1-7, 19-21 and 31-33, and 3 more places -- 17.5% 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 Become One?

160 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 Become One hard to play on drums?

59 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 57 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

134 bars, about 3:21 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 52 exercises over 13 sittings, about 29 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 Become One?

23 fills to learn, played 36 times: bars 8, 10, 14, 18, 22, 26 and 30 more.
