The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 7-9, 13-20 and 49-52 -- 17.2% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
It is played on snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick, counted in thirty-second notes. On its own it scores 47 out of 100 -- a step up -- and the thing that decides that is how many notes a second it asks for.
The whole song is 59 out of 100, so the beat is not the hard part: what costs you is everything around it, the joins and the fills.
The room opens this beat on its simplest reduction, at 90 BPM, and adds the notes back a rung at a time -- 3 of them. Nothing is a matter of opinion: each rung has a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next one.
Tempo goes 90, 105 and 120 BPM, and the gate at each one is 8 loops in a row with no wrong note and no wobble in the time.
PRACTISE THIS BEAT →A one-bar groove on snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick, in 4/4 at 120 BPM, counted in thirty-second notes. It is written out above, and it covers 17.2% of the bars the kit plays.
Bars 7-9, 13-20 and 49-52. The time is kept on the toms to start with, and it changes 9 times over the song.
47 out of 100 on its own -- a step up. The song as a whole is 59 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
