Ya Erê Ya Na · Mehmet Atlı

125 bars at 180 BPM -- fast, and 2:47 of it without a break -- on ride, hi-hat, snare and kick.

39 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it.

hi-hat through bars 1-14, snare through bars 15-21, hi-hat through bars 22-28, snare through bars 29-35, ride through bars 36-49 and hi-hat through bars 50-56, and 6 more changes after that.

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 8-14, 22-28 and 50-56, and 2 more places -- 31.3% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

There are no fills to speak of: the part holds one beat the whole way through.

It cuts the song into 31 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.
