Questions

What BPM is Infected Voice?

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

Is Infected Voice hard to play on drums?

69 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 49 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

179 bars, about 2:52 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 38 exercises over 12 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, 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 Infected Voice?

12 fills to learn, played 28 times: bars 2, 3, 21, 23, 24, 32 and 22 more.
