Questions

What BPM is The Wretch?

216 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 Wretch hard to play on drums?

66 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 33 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

198 bars, about 3:40 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 85 exercises over 26 sittings, about 26 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 Wretch?

27 fills to learn, played 43 times: bars 18, 20, 28, 36, 38, 40 and 37 more.
