THE BEAT

One bar, and 30% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 51-80 -- 30% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

Questions

What BPM is Woman?

152 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second 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 Woman 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 55 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

103 bars, about 2:43 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 21 exercises over 5 sittings, about 30 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
