THE BEAT

One bar, and 16% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 26-30, 56-61 and 94-99 -- 15.7% 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 Slob?

144 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 Slob hard to play on drums?

61 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 28 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

108 bars, about 3:00 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 33 exercises over 10 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, 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 Slob?

5 fills to learn, played 15 times: bars 31, 46, 47, 50, 51, 69 and 9 more.
