THE BEAT

One bar, and 11% of the song

The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 72-74, 76-78 and 88-90, and 3 more places -- 10.8% 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 Creepymane?

150 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second 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 Creepymane hard to play on drums?

96 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 55 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

168 bars, about 4:29 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 71 exercises over 23 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in Creepymane?

12 fills to learn, played 14 times: bars 9, 22, 26, 30, 34, 35 and 8 more.
