One bar, and 20% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 25, 27-29 and 39-41, and 3 more places -- 20.3% 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 Stranded?

92 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second 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 Stranded hard to play on drums?

64 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 45 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

90 bars, about 4:23 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 37 exercises over 12 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

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

10 fills to learn, played 16 times: bars 7, 8, 18, 20, 22, 24 and 10 more.
