What the course does

It cuts the song into 16 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 -- B, E -- 3 exercises, about 28 minutes.
  2. Through the Chorus -- 2 exercises, about 29 minutes.
  3. Bars 29-65 -- 6 exercises, about 24 minutes.
  4. Through Part E and the Chorus 2 -- 3 exercises, about 23 minutes. Open above.
  5. The whole song -- 5 exercises, about 19 minutes.
  6. Through the Outro 2 -- 1 exercise, about 13 minutes.

Questions

What BPM is Hegal Egiten?

158 BPM, in 4/4, 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 Hegal Egiten hard to play on drums?

46 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 38 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

171 bars, about 4:20 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 16 exercises over 6 sittings, about 23 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, hi-hat, snare, 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 Hegal Egiten?

3 fills to learn, played 5 times: bars 63, 64, 111, 112 and 130.
