ABOUT THIS DRUM PART

How to play The only name on drums

115 bars of 4/4 at 117 BPM, about 3:56 of playing, on crash, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

The beat

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 1-20, 28-29 and 74, and 1 more place -- 26.1% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

What the course does

It cuts the song into 35 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 -- A, I -- 7 exercises, about 35 minutes.

Questions

What BPM is The only name?

117 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 The only name hard to play on drums?

41 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it. The beat itself is 0 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

115 bars, about 3:56 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 35 exercises over 8 sittings, about 29 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

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