Questions

What BPM is HELLIONS?

235 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 HELLIONS hard to play on drums?

70 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 56 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

239 bars, about 4:04 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 74 exercises over 24 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, 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 HELLIONS?

27 fills to learn, played 103 times: bars 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 97 more.
