Questions

What BPM is starman?

92 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth 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 starman hard to play on drums?

52 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 50 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

81 bars, about 3:31 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 14 exercises over 5 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick. Nothing in the part asks for anything else.
