THE BEAT

One bar, and 10% of the song

The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 123-137 and 277-291 -- 10% 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 Vinushka?

102 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 Vinushka hard to play on drums?

57 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 56 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

324 bars, about 11:29 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 93 exercises over 28 sittings, about 26 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 Vinushka?

29 fills to learn, played 137 times: bars 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 16 and 131 more.
