Questions

What BPM is Pressure And Time?

92 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 Pressure And Time hard to play on drums?

74 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 54 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

76 bars, about 3:18 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 29 exercises over 11 sittings, about 24 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 Pressure And Time?

9 fills to learn, played 13 times: bars 1, 17, 21, 37, 41, 42 and 7 more.
