THE BEAT

One bar, and 20% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 1-5, 11-13 and 15-17, and 2 more places -- 20.2% 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 Vengeful One?

85 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 Vengeful One hard to play on drums?

67 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 47 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

89 bars, about 4:11 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 35 exercises over 12 sittings, about 24 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 The Vengeful One?

12 fills to learn, played 21 times: bars 8, 10, 14, 18, 22, 28 and 15 more.
