THE BEAT

One bar, and 13% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 13, 17 and 19, and 6 more places -- 12.5% 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 S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W?

78 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 S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W 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 35 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

83 bars, about 4:15 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 36 exercises over 12 sittings, about 24 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 S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W?

11 fills to learn, played 18 times: bars 2, 20, 22, 23, 41, 43 and 12 more.
