Questions

What BPM is Love?

79 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 Love hard to play on drums?

68 out of 100: demanding, mostly on 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?

65 bars, about 3:17 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 17 exercises over 6 sittings, about 25 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 Love?

2 fills to learn, played 5 times: bars 20, 21, 22, 23 and 64.
