THE BEAT

One bar, and 10% of the song

The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 57, 59 and 61, and 8 more places -- 10.2% 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 One By One (Complete)?

190 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 One By One (Complete) hard to play on drums?

60 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 40 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

216 bars, about 4:11 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 80 exercises over 20 sittings, about 28 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 One By One (Complete)?

21 fills to learn, played 50 times: bars 21, 22, 24, 31, 32, 36 and 44 more.
