Questions

What BPM is Creatures?

145 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 Creatures hard to play on drums?

49 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 14 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

134 bars, about 3:39 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 69 exercises over 18 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, 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 Creatures?

20 fills to learn, played 29 times: bars 10, 12, 14, 16, 20, 24 and 23 more.
