THE BEAT

One bar, and 12% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 73-74, 77-79 and 83-85, and 4 more places -- 11.9% 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 onset?

140 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth 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 onset hard to play on drums?

66 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 62 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

137 bars, about 3:57 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 50 exercises over 21 sittings, about 23 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

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.
