ABOUT THIS DRUM PART

How to play Hjerteknuser on drums

96 bars of 3/4 -- not four -- at 90 BPM, 3:12 of playing on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.

53 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how often it moves around the kit.

What the course does

It cuts the song into 22 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 -- A -- 3 exercises, about 18 minutes.
  2. The grooves the song is built on -- B, D -- 5 exercises, about 34 minutes.
  3. Through the Chorus and Part B -- 6 exercises, about 25 minutes.

Questions

What BPM is Hjerteknuser?

90 BPM, in 3/4, with the time kept in sixteenth 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 Hjerteknuser hard to play on drums?

53 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how often it moves around the kit. The beat itself is 30 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

96 bars, about 3:12 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 22 exercises over 6 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 Hjerteknuser?

6 fills to learn, played 18 times: bars 4, 25, 26, 39, 40, 43 and 12 more.
