Questions

What BPM is Heirloom?

138 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. The room plays it at any tempo from a quarter of that up to the written one, against the record where the record can follow.

Is Heirloom hard to play on drums?

71 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 51 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

209 bars, about 6:03 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 67 exercises over 21 sittings, about 25 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 Heirloom?

12 fills to learn, played 23 times: bars 7, 18, 35, 39, 43, 44 and 17 more.
