Questions

What BPM is Stockholm Syndrome?

135 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 Stockholm Syndrome hard to play on drums?

42 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it. The beat itself is 42 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

137 bars, about 4:04 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 9 exercises over 3 sittings, about 21 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

hi-hat, snare and kick. Three pieces and no more -- this one is playable on almost anything with a kick, a snare and something to keep time on.
