Questions

What BPM is Damage Case correct?

165 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. At that speed the sixteenth notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.

Is Damage Case correct hard to play on drums?

52 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 42 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

121 bars, about 3:06 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 20 exercises over 5 sittings, about 27 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, hi-hat, snare, 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 Damage Case correct?

6 fills to learn, played 7 times: bars 28, 32, 46, 60, 72, 76 and 1 more.
