THE BEAT

One bar, and 14% of the song

The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 37, 48-52 and 54, and 2 more places -- 13.7% 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 Your Saviour?

94 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 Your Saviour hard to play on drums?

65 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 51 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

95 bars, about 3:59 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 44 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 Your Saviour?

11 fills to learn, played 38 times: bars 1, 4, 5, 9, 19, 20 and 32 more.
