Questions

What BPM is dezzz?

233 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 dezzz hard to play on drums?

73 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 40 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

207 bars, about 3:35 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 67 exercises over 19 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 dezzz?

18 fills to learn, played 39 times: bars 19, 20, 24, 27, 28, 31 and 33 more.
