What the course does

It cuts the song into 25 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.

82 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 84 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
