Questions

What BPM is THE FALL?

132 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 THE FALL hard to play on drums?

70 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 50 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

126 bars, about 3:49 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 57 exercises over 19 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, 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 THE FALL?

17 fills to learn, played 22 times: bars 4, 8, 12, 20, 24, 28 and 16 more.
