THE BEAT

One bar, and 15% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 14-16, 18-20 and 30, and 9 more places -- 15% 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 Sajni?

107 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 Sajni hard to play on drums?

58 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 39 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

137 bars, about 5:06 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 69 exercises over 20 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, 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 Sajni?

20 fills to learn, played 38 times: bars 9, 13, 21, 25, 29, 33 and 32 more.
