THE BEAT

One bar, and 10% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 46-47, 50-51 and 54-55, and 13 more places -- 10% 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 La Poderosa Muerte Versión Estudio?

79 BPM, in 3/4, 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 La Poderosa Muerte Versión Estudio hard to play on drums?

80 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 77 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

264 bars, about 10:50 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 90 exercises over 32 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 La Poderosa Muerte Versión Estudio?

26 fills to learn, played 115 times: bars 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13 and 109 more.
