Questions

What BPM is La Célula Que Explota?

122 BPM, in 4/4, 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 La Célula Que Explota hard to play on drums?

54 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 48 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

108 bars, about 3:32 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 40 exercises over 11 sittings, about 28 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 La Célula Que Explota?

15 fills to learn, played 32 times: bars 10, 12, 14, 16, 20, 22 and 26 more.
