THE BEAT

One bar, and 26% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 25-26, 29-30 and 36-38, and 4 more places -- 26% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

Questions

What BPM is Wet?

192 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 Wet hard to play on drums?

73 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 46 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

126 bars, about 2:38 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 47 exercises over 15 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 Wet?

10 fills to learn, played 18 times: bars 8, 16, 32, 41, 45, 48 and 12 more.
