Questions

What BPM is Land of Ours?

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 Land of Ours hard to play on drums?

83 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 59 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

325 bars, about 8:34 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 101 exercises over 34 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 Land of Ours?

27 fills to learn, played 45 times: bars 30, 32, 33, 34, 51, 79 and 39 more.
