THE BEAT

One bar, and 15% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 27-29, 31-33 and 35-37, and 5 more places -- 14.7% 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 Persecucion?

210 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 Persecucion hard to play on drums?

53 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 43 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

184 bars, about 3:30 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 40 exercises over 10 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 Persecucion?

5 fills to learn, played 20 times: bars 8, 12, 16, 26, 30, 42 and 14 more.
