THE BEAT

One bar, and 24% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 13-20, 22-28 and 46-53, and 1 more place -- 24.4% 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 Conflict?

120 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 Conflict hard to play on drums?

55 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 52 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

138 bars, about 4:48 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 40 exercises over 11 sittings, about 28 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, 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 Conflict?

6 fills to learn, played 15 times: bars 12, 21, 36, 37, 44, 45 and 9 more.
