Questions

What BPM is "The Resurrection of Kariba"?

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

Is "The Resurrection of Kariba" hard to play on drums?

89 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 54 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

196 bars, about 4:37 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 68 exercises over 24 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, 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 Resurrection of Kariba"?

19 fills to learn, played 43 times: bars 23, 24, 25, 35, 36, 38 and 37 more.
