THE BEAT

One bar, and 9% of the song

The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 19-20, 23-24 and 27-28, and 6 more places -- 8.7% 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 Teleute?

230 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. At that speed the thirty-second notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.

Is Teleute hard to play on drums?

78 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 55 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

161 bars, about 2:57 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 55 exercises over 18 sittings, about 27 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor 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 Teleute?

15 fills to learn, played 26 times: bars 10, 22, 42, 46, 54, 62 and 20 more.
