How to play Burnout on drums

The beat

The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 1-11, 17-23 and 34-36, and 1 more place -- 25.5% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

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 -- A -- 2 exercises, about 18 minutes.
  2. The grooves the song is built on -- I -- 6 exercises, about 32 minutes.
  3. The grooves the song is built on -- D -- 1 exercise, about 19 minutes.
  4. Bars 12-20 -- 7 exercises, about 35 minutes.
  5. Bars 17-41 -- 7 exercises, about 31 minutes.
