Questions

What BPM is The Maker?

112 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 Maker hard to play on drums?

58 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how fine the subdivision is. The beat itself is 25 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

100 bars, about 3:33 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 35 exercises over 10 sittings, about 27 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 Maker?

14 fills to learn, played 19 times: bars 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 15 and 13 more.
