Questions

What BPM is Ahora Que No Estás?

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

Is Ahora Que No Estás hard to play on drums?

54 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how fine the subdivision is. The beat itself is 23 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

198 bars, about 4:57 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 37 exercises over 11 sittings, about 24 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

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

How many fills are in Ahora Que No Estás?

6 fills to learn, played 15 times: bars 36, 78, 80, 84, 92, 96 and 9 more.
