THE BEAT

One bar, and 23% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 4, 6 and 22-24, and 7 more places -- 23% 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 Terlalu Lama?

75 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.

Is Terlalu Lama hard to play on drums?

58 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 46 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

76 bars, about 4:03 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, 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 Terlalu Lama?

11 fills to learn, played 25 times: bars 1, 5, 9, 17, 18, 19 and 19 more.
