Questions

What BPM is Crossfire?

192 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 Crossfire hard to play on drums?

76 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 66 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

194 bars, about 4:30 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 67 exercises over 22 sittings, about 26 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 Crossfire?

10 fills to learn, played 16 times: bars 4, 5, 6, 7, 14, 75 and 10 more.
