Travis Orbin - Long Walks On Short Bridges Interpretation

This tune kicks off the S/T album (other than the brief intro) and it's very intense and energetic. The drum part is highly taxing and puzzling to play with or without my 'interpretation.' There are many touches of odd time but you may not immediately notice because of the fast tempo. There's also a lengthy metric modulation towards the middle that purports a 'six' feel. I was going to use my good ol' 14“ brass snare but as I was changing heads, one of the lugs snapped right in half! Crap. Notes: 0:02 - 0:15 -- Drum intro is performed as it is on the album, then with my twist 0:32 - 0:37 -- 3-8 crash cymbal superimposition 1:02 - 1:11 -- Crash cymbals complement electronic progression 1:41 -- Ten weeks of touring, countless hours of rehearsing and the only time I ever miss one of the hi-hat strikes is when I'm filming... hilarious 2:10 -- Quick snare roll locks in with electronica 2:57 - 3:09 -- Spiced this section up quite a bit 3:51
