ABOUT THIS DRUM PART

How to play Your House on drums

138 bars at 156 BPM -- fast, and 3:32 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom and kick.

42 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the speed of the hand keeping time the part that decides it.

What the course does

It cuts the song into 13 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.

  1. The grooves the song is built on -- C -- 5 exercises, about 33 minutes. Open above.
  2. Through the Chorus and the Outro -- 4 exercises, about 28 minutes.
  3. Bars 36-52 -- 5 exercises, about 21 minutes.
  4. The whole song -- 3 exercises, about 27 minutes.

Questions

What BPM is Your House?

156 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 Your House hard to play on drums?

42 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the speed of the hand keeping time the part that decides it. The beat itself is 28 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

138 bars, about 3:32 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 13 exercises over 4 sittings, about 27 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid 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 Your House?

3 fills to learn, played 5 times: bars 1, 13, 49, 50 and 51.
