THE BEAT

One bar, and 9% of the song

Questions

What BPM is Let Me Hear?

184 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 Let Me Hear hard to play on drums?

70 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 43 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

155 bars, about 3:22 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 79 exercises over 24 sittings, about 27 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, 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 Let Me Hear?

18 fills to learn, played 42 times: bars 17, 21, 25, 41, 51, 55 and 36 more.
