Questions

What BPM is Lazarus?

150 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 Lazarus hard to play on drums?

90 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 58 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

137 bars, about 3:39 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 60 exercises over 21 sittings, about 24 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, 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 Lazarus?

20 fills to learn, played 27 times: bars 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24 and 21 more.
