THE BEAT

One bar, and 23% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 57-62, 65-70 and 121-126, and 5 more places -- 22.7% 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 The Night?

184 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 The Night hard to play on drums?

56 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 31 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

216 bars, about 4:42 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 33 exercises over 8 sittings, about 28 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 The Night?

5 fills to learn, played 27 times: bars 5, 6, 7, 8, 13, 14 and 21 more.
