ABOUT THIS DRUM PART

How to play from me to u on drums

167 bars at 200 BPM -- fast, and 3:20 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

52 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

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 5-7, 10-11 and 15-17, and 15 more places -- 22.8% 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 52 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 -- B, H -- 4 exercises, about 29 minutes.
  2. The grooves the song is built on -- I -- 3 exercises, about 34 minutes.
  3. Through the Chorus -- 3 exercises, about 22 minutes.
  4. Through the Chorus -- 4 exercises, about 27 minutes.
  5. Through the Chorus and Part L -- 4 exercises, about 17 minutes.
  6. Through Part L and the Chorus 2 -- 4 exercises, about 30 minutes.

  9. and 7 more sittings after that.

Questions

What BPM is from me to u?

200 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 from me to u hard to play on drums?

52 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 32 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

167 bars, about 3:20 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 52 exercises over 15 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, hi-hat, snare, 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 from me to u?

11 fills to learn, played 17 times: bars 12, 22, 30, 37, 38, 58 and 11 more.
