Questions

What BPM is Ignite?

145 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 Ignite 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 87 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

147 bars, about 4:02 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 21 exercises over 7 sittings, about 28 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, hi-hat, snare, 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 Ignite?

12 fills to learn, played 43 times: bars 1, 2, 8, 9, 10, 14 and 37 more.
