Questions

What BPM is Misinterpreting Constellations?

165 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. At that speed the sixteenth notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.

Is Misinterpreting Constellations hard to play on drums?

53 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 40 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

128 bars, about 3:39 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 60 exercises over 16 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, 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 Misinterpreting Constellations?

20 fills to learn, played 32 times: bars 23, 27, 37, 39, 41, 43 and 26 more.
