THE BEAT

One bar, and 8% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 11-16 and 99-104 -- 8.2% 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 Together As One?

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

Is Together As One hard to play on drums?

99 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 95 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

148 bars, about 2:43 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 47 exercises over 20 sittings, about 25 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 Together As One?

18 fills to learn, played 41 times: bars 1, 8, 9, 17, 21, 25 and 35 more.
