Questions

What BPM is Through Shadows?

152 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 Through Shadows hard to play on drums?

59 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 39 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

197 bars, about 5:11 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 68 exercises over 23 sittings, about 25 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 Through Shadows?

12 fills to learn, played 14 times: bars 41, 43, 57, 73, 82, 86 and 8 more.
