THE BEAT

One bar, and 10% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 3, 6 and 9, and 5 more places -- 10.1% 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 Terrorvision?

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

Is Terrorvision hard to play on drums?

85 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 63 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

278 bars, about 4:21 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 96 exercises over 30 sittings, about 26 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 Terrorvision?

25 fills to learn, played 52 times: bars 12, 22, 29, 30, 38, 50 and 46 more.
