Questions

What BPM is Agujas?

180 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 Agujas hard to play on drums?

76 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 48 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

151 bars, about 3:21 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 57 exercises over 18 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in Agujas?

17 fills to learn, played 32 times: bars 9, 11, 12, 15, 16, 20 and 26 more.
