What the course does

It cuts the song into 31 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.

  1. The grooves the song is built on -- C -- 4 exercises, about 21 minutes.
  2. The grooves the song is built on -- S -- 2 exercises, about 18 minutes.
  3. The grooves the song is built on -- P -- 2 exercises, about 25 minutes.
  4. Through the Chorus and Part F -- 3 exercises, about 30 minutes.
  5. Bars 13-33 -- 5 exercises, about 28 minutes.

Questions

What BPM is Lies?

124 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 Lies hard to play on drums?

61 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 32 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

105 bars, about 3:23 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 31 exercises over 9 sittings, about 26 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 Lies?

4 fills to learn, played 5 times: bars 8, 32, 48, 56 and 88.
