Questions

What BPM is Seer?

80 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 Seer hard to play on drums?

57 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 38 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

142 bars, about 7:06 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 32 exercises over 9 sittings, about 27 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, 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 Seer?

5 fills to learn, played 10 times: bars 27, 49, 75, 77, 79, 81 and 4 more.
