Questions

What BPM is More Of Myself To Kill?

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

Is More Of Myself To Kill hard to play on drums?

75 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 41 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

318 bars, about 5:47 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 114 exercises over 35 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 More Of Myself To Kill?

24 fills to learn, played 50 times: bars 1, 2, 5, 16, 24, 28 and 44 more.
