Questions

What BPM is Death Delirium?

107 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second 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 Death Delirium hard to play on drums?

100 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 98 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

115 bars, about 4:21 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 38 exercises over 13 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, 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 Death Delirium?

13 fills to learn, played 37 times: bars 2, 3, 6, 9, 16, 18 and 31 more.
