What the course does

It cuts the song into 17 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 -- B, E -- 4 exercises, about 35 minutes.
  2. Through the Chorus and Part E -- 4 exercises, about 26 minutes.
  3. Through Part E and the Break -- 3 exercises, about 29 minutes.
  4. Through Part E and the Chorus 2 -- 5 exercises, about 30 minutes. Open above.
  5. The whole song -- 3 exercises, about 20 minutes.

Questions

What BPM is Sunrise?

90 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 Sunrise hard to play on drums?

47 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 34 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

97 bars, about 4:15 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 17 exercises over 5 sittings, about 28 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

1 fill to learn, played 2 times: bars 9 and 51.
