How to play Hope Of Deliverance on drums

130 bars at 160 BPM -- fast, and 3:15 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, kick and hi-hat foot.

13 out of 100: straightforward, and the one thing to watch is how often it moves around the kit.

What the course does

It cuts the song into 17 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 -- C, F, D -- 3 exercises, about 30 minutes. Open above.
  2. Through Part S2 -- 4 exercises, about 26 minutes.
  3. Bars 29-53 -- 7 exercises, about 33 minutes.
  4. The whole song -- 5 exercises, about 28 minutes.
