Questions

What BPM is The World Is Yours?

185 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 World Is Yours hard to play on drums?

82 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 59 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

220 bars, about 4:45 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 56 exercises over 16 sittings, about 27 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in The World Is Yours?

21 fills to learn, played 63 times: bars 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 57 more.
