Questions

What BPM is Hunting Soul?

170 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. At that speed the thirty-second notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.

Is Hunting Soul hard to play on drums?

93 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 81 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

164 bars, about 3:52 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 44 exercises over 15 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, 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 Hunting Soul?

12 fills to learn, played 33 times: bars 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 and 27 more.
