Questions

What BPM is mirror------------>?

90 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.

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

How long is the drum part?

144 bars, about 6:24 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 28 exercises over 9 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

How many fills are in mirror------------>?

3 fills to learn, played 14 times: bars 16, 20, 28, 64, 68, 76 and 8 more.
