The beat

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 96-97, 232-233 and 235-237, and 10 more places -- 13% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

What the course does

It cuts the song into 62 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.

  1. The grooves the song is built on -- V, I -- 2 exercises, about 24 minutes.

Is Siberian Khatru hard to play on drums?

43 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it. The beat itself is 35 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

What do I need on the kit?
