Questions

What BPM is Mutante?

210 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 Mutante hard to play on drums?

68 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 53 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

188 bars, about 3:35 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 75 exercises over 20 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, 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 Mutante?

17 fills to learn, played 22 times: bars 18, 26, 34, 42, 46, 50 and 16 more.
