THE BEAT

One bar, and 7% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 156-158, 160-162 and 164-166, and 3 more places -- 6.9% 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 Zagreus?

132 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 Zagreus hard to play on drums?

83 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 68 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

226 bars, about 6:49 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 70 exercises over 24 sittings, about 26 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 Zagreus?

15 fills to learn, played 23 times: bars 1, 24, 25, 33, 54, 58 and 17 more.
