Questions

What BPM is Bajo Tu Control?

90 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. The room plays it at any tempo from a quarter of that up to the written one, against the record where the record can follow.

Is Bajo Tu Control hard to play on drums?

38 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it. The beat itself is 12 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

79 bars, about 3:31 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 20 exercises over 4 sittings, about 32 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 Bajo Tu Control?

3 fills to learn, played 6 times: bars 4, 28, 52, 60, 61 and 69.
