Questions

What BPM is Other Worlds?

135 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 Other Worlds hard to play on drums?

70 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 64 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

162 bars, about 4:49 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 49 exercises over 15 sittings, about 28 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 Other Worlds?

16 fills to learn, played 29 times: bars 31, 32, 33, 34, 38, 42 and 23 more.
