What the course does

It cuts the song into 22 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.

  1. The grooves the song is built on -- A, C -- 3 exercises, about 24 minutes.
  2. Through Part C and the Chorus 5 -- 5 exercises, about 31 minutes.
  3. Bars 59-96 -- 4 exercises, about 28 minutes.
  4. Bars 95-264 -- 4 exercises, about 26 minutes.
  5. Bars 149-366 -- 7 exercises, about 29 minutes. Open above.
  6. The whole song -- 1 exercise, about 10 minutes.

Questions

What BPM is Extraños?

190 BPM, in 2/4, 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 Extraños hard to play on drums?

45 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 9 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

458 bars, about 4:52 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 22 exercises over 6 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, 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 Extraños?

1 fill to learn, played 2 times: bars 329 and 330.
