Questions

What BPM is Foregone, Pt. 2?

180 BPM, in 6/4, 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 Foregone, Pt. 2 hard to play on drums?

44 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it. The beat itself is 29 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

129 bars, about 3:51 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 29 exercises over 7 sittings, about 28 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, 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 Foregone, Pt. 2?

8 fills to learn, played 33 times: bars 3, 7, 8, 13, 18, 19 and 27 more.
