Questions

What BPM is Deliver Me?

132 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 Deliver Me hard to play on drums?

69 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 46 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

137 bars, about 4:09 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 55 exercises over 16 sittings, about 27 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 Deliver Me?

14 fills to learn, played 32 times: bars 9, 17, 18, 19, 22, 25 and 26 more.
