THE BEAT

One bar, and 14% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 38-40, 42-44 and 70-72, and 1 more place -- 13.5% 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 Pink Spider?

98 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 Pink Spider hard to play on drums?

73 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 48 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

90 bars, about 3:40 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 45 exercises over 13 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in Pink Spider?

18 fills to learn, played 43 times: bars 5, 9, 10, 12, 13, 17 and 37 more.
