Questions

What BPM is Inside...?

138 BPM, in 3/4, with the time kept in sixteenth 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 Inside... hard to play on drums?

44 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it. The beat itself is 38 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

226 bars, about 4:55 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 16 exercises over 4 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, 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 Inside...?

1 fill to learn, played 1 time: bar 1.
