I thought it would be good if I were to come up with a drum beat everyday. This is the first! Enjoy ![]()

This is the transcription of Desert Song by Hillsong for the drum set. It is by far the fastest drum score transcription I have done, taking only four days, despite such a challenging song. This couldn't be done without God!
Basically this song has a lot of variations of beats but it keeps certain idea throughout its variation in terms of the accents. I try to be as accurate as possible while transcribing the drum part. It was difficult to have everything on two pages so I had to make it three. There are certain things you should note when playing.
It's another year, I'm 16 now. Thanks to my good friends for spending time with me yesterday, 25th July 2009. Well, now that I'm older, it is about time I think more realistically and maturely. There isn't anything else I should be focusing now except on my Art 'O' Level Coursework and Preliminary Examinations. Time to put down the fun and bring up the work. Life for the past half a year was bad, I'm going to end it... Till then.
It has been quite a long time since I have uploaded a drum score (sheet music). Here's one that I've just finish - I started last year. The song is I Belong To You by Parachute Band. Took me long because I did not spend time on it. This time, I am uploading a bigger image file with a high image resolution to look good when printed. I did not add in dynamic notations this time, you have to play it yourself.
You also need to figure out the sticking most suitable for you for some fill-ins. Do let me know what you think. Check out the Music category to view more drum scores.
"Practice Makes Perfect" is not an idiom that one should take it literally. As humans on Earth, we can never be perfect in anyway. Therefore, "Practice Makes Perfect" is an idiom and not a mere literal statement. The definition of an idiom is "A term or phrase whose meaning cannot be deduced from the literal definitions and the arrangement of its parts, but refers instead to a figurative meaning that is known only through common use." (taken from Wikipedia). Thus, what "Practice Makes Perfect" really means, is that you will get better the more you practice. Want to be better? Practice!
I have finished another Hillsong drum score (sheet music). Tabbing this is not easy because the drum parts could not be heard easily in the song. I have also used Sibelius to write this out so I hope this score is more easily recognized. Alright, now I have tabbed it, it is time to learn it.
Alright, I would like to thank God for passing my exams because I expected to fail some subjects and do very horribly, based on my attitude and mood before exams, but I did rather average, with all the Bs and Cs. Sometimes I wonder if I really had deserve this. Anyways, I have written out the drum score or tab of This Is Our God by Hillsong, using Guitar Pro because I'm playing that song in tomorrow's service. I thought I would like to share it with other people. It is not 100% accurate because I left out certain minor rhythms but I tried to be accurate as possible. Since this was typed out using Guitar Pro, means there are some limitations in regards to dynamics and notations so just play at your own discretion. By the way, this is my very first time to tab out a complete song so pardon any amateurish work.
