Questions

What BPM is The Art Of Partying?

222 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. At that speed the sixteenth notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.

Is The Art Of Partying hard to play on drums?

71 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 72 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

5 fills to learn, played 7 times: bars 1, 5, 35, 43, 91, 99 and 1 more.
