THE BEAT

One bar, and 20% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 20, 22 and 24, and 5 more places -- 20% 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 Scream?

94 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 Scream 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 44 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

75 bars, about 3:11 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 40 exercises over 11 sittings, about 27 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 Scream?

11 fills to learn, played 20 times: bars 1, 19, 21, 23, 25, 37 and 14 more.
