Questions

What BPM is As One We'll Survive?

177 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 As One We'll Survive hard to play on drums?

92 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 82 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

239 bars, about 5:24 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 56 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 As One We'll Survive?

16 fills to learn, played 35 times: bars 4, 8, 16, 32, 40, 47 and 29 more.
