ABOUT THIS DRUM PART

How to play Divine on drums

195 bars at 215 BPM -- fast, and 3:38 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

48 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

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 19-24, 45-47 and 53-55, and 7 more places -- 13.9% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

What the course does

It cuts the song into 76 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 -- N -- 3 exercises, about 18 minutes.
  2. The grooves the song is built on -- AH -- 3 exercises, about 20 minutes.
  3. The grooves the song is built on -- AD -- 2 exercises, about 26 minutes.
  4. Through Part H and the Chorus -- 6 exercises, about 33 minutes. Open above.
  5. Through Part H and the Chorus -- 4 exercises, about 28 minutes.
  6. Through Part H and the Chorus -- 5 exercises, about 33 minutes.
  7. Bars 23-38 -- 6 exercises, about 29 minutes.
  8. Through Part A and the Chorus 2 -- 6 exercises, about 25 minutes.
  9. and 12 more sittings after that.

Questions

What BPM is Divine?

215 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 Divine hard to play on drums?

48 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 21 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

195 bars, about 3:38 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 76 exercises over 20 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 Divine?

28 fills to learn, played 68 times: bars 1, 2, 5, 6, 10, 14 and 62 more.
