Questions

What BPM is in a fever dream 2?

104 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 in a fever dream 2 hard to play on drums?

70 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 44 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

232 bars, about 8:18 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 63 exercises over 20 sittings, about 26 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 in a fever dream 2?

14 fills to learn, played 27 times: bars 42, 44, 46, 50, 52, 54 and 21 more.
