THE BEAT

One bar, and 33% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 1-12, 25-36 and 49-52, and 1 more place -- 33.3% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

Questions

What BPM is Shine?

75 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.

Is Shine hard to play on drums?

59 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 50 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

111 bars, about 5:55 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 20 exercises over 6 sittings, about 24 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

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

1 fill to learn, played 3 times: bars 24, 48 and 92.
