THE BEAT

One bar, and 17% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 14, 16 and 28, and 6 more places -- 17.3% 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 New Metal?

130 BPM, in 8/4, 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 New Metal hard to play on drums?

61 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 61 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

104 bars, about 6:24 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 23 exercises over 8 sittings, about 25 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 New Metal?

8 fills to learn, played 17 times: bars 2, 17, 18, 20, 21, 22 and 11 more.
