THE BEAT

One bar, and 22% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 29-31, 33-34 and 38-39, and 8 more places -- 22.2% 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 Hereafter (correct)?

120 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 Hereafter (correct) hard to play on drums?

56 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 23 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

125 bars, about 4:10 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 44 exercises over 15 sittings, about 24 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, 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 Hereafter (correct)?

5 fills to learn, played 13 times: bars 16, 26, 36, 37, 76, 77 and 7 more.
