THE BEAT

One bar, and 21% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 42-44, 46-48 and 66-68, and 3 more places -- 20.9% 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 Burn The Evidence?

99 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 Burn The Evidence hard to play on drums?

62 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 39 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

87 bars, about 3:29 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 24 exercises over 10 sittings, about 22 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

ride, hi-hat, 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.
