Questions

What BPM is High Tariff Behaviour?

115 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 High Tariff Behaviour hard to play on drums?

87 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 49 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

150 bars, about 5:10 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 75 exercises over 25 sittings, about 27 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in High Tariff Behaviour?

21 fills to learn, played 40 times: bars 7, 8, 9, 14, 15, 16 and 34 more.
