Questions

What BPM is THALL?

150 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 THALL hard to play on drums?

75 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 52 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

46 bars, about 1:14 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 17 exercises over 7 sittings, about 22 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 THALL?

3 fills to learn, played 8 times: bars 1, 5, 7, 8, 37, 38 and 2 more.
