Questions

What BPM is femboy slam?

170 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 femboy slam hard to play on drums?

86 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 87 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

149 bars, about 3:30 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 56 exercises over 19 sittings, about 26 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 femboy slam?

22 fills to learn, played 71 times: bars 2, 4, 6, 12, 13, 14 and 65 more.
