Questions

What BPM is Deadnight Warrior?

214 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 Deadnight Warrior hard to play on drums?

90 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 29 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

165 bars, about 3:07 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 64 exercises over 23 sittings, about 23 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 Deadnight Warrior?

11 fills to learn, played 14 times: bars 17, 18, 26, 38, 45, 58 and 8 more.
