Questions

What BPM is Beyond the Mind?

164 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 Beyond the Mind hard to play on drums?

78 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 67 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

151 bars, about 3:52 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 59 exercises over 21 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, 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 Beyond the Mind?

16 fills to learn, played 37 times: bars 4, 5, 8, 9, 12, 13 and 31 more.
