THE BEAT

One bar, and 17% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 14-16, 18 and 26-28, and 1 more place -- 17.3% 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 Un?

191 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 Un hard to play on drums?

48 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 25 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

86 bars, about 1:48 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 25 exercises over 7 sittings, about 27 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 Un?

4 fills to learn, played 11 times: bars 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 5 more.
