THE BEAT

One bar, and 19% of the song

The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 23-26, 29-32 and 35-38 -- 18.5% 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 only yours?

150 BPM, in 4/4, 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 only yours 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 49 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

65 bars, about 1:42 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 26 exercises over 7 sittings, about 29 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid 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 only yours?

4 fills to learn, played 9 times: bars 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 59 and 3 more.
