Questions

What BPM is The Remedy?

180 BPM, in 5/4, 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 Remedy hard to play on drums?

50 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 36 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

216 bars, about 6:00 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 47 exercises over 11 sittings, about 29 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 Remedy?

8 fills to learn, played 12 times: bars 4, 36, 44, 104, 136, 140 and 6 more.
