Questions

What BPM is Acida?

170 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. At that speed the sixteenth notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.

Is Acida hard to play on drums?

59 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 43 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

109 bars, about 2:34 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 14 exercises over 6 sittings, about 22 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, hi-hat, snare, kick and hi-hat foot. Nothing in the part asks for anything else.

How many fills are in Acida?

3 fills to learn, played 9 times: bars 8, 36, 48, 52, 72, 84 and 3 more.
