Pop fans can get down to our newest arrival to the Rock Band 4 Music Store – Justin Bieber! The Canadian star has quickly made his way to the top of music lists around the world, so we’re here to bring some fan favorites to the game in a playable setting.
The bass part in Bieber’s track, “Sorry”, contains an unusual amount of chords. Drummers will experience a unique type of beat not typically found in tracks that are already in the Rock Band library. Vocals contain a challenging countermelody, which at one point, sing a six-note run. Prepare your chords for this one!
“Boyfriend” has unique and fun drum patterns, mapping hi-hats to blue gems and toms to yellow. The verses are rapped in this track, so vocalists beware; you may be lulled into a false sense of security without pitch, but there are challenging harmonic parts happening in the outro of the song.
Fancy yourself a performer? Plug in the mic and guitar for a solo rendition of “Love Yourself.” The muted “backbeat” strums in the guitar part can be found throughout the entire song. This is a technique our DLC team first implemented with the track “More Than Words” by Extreme. It provides players with a pulse in the absence of a drum part.
For fans of Justin Bieber's music, don't forget to check out his hit single, "What Do You Mean?", featured as new DLC for 2015's New Year's Eve Jams.
The “Justin Bieber Pack 01” can be purchased for $5.49. Tracks are available individually for $1.99 each.
*Please note that DLC tracks will not be available for purchase until Tuesday, April 19th.
