ABOUT THIS DRUM PART

How to play Twisted Fate    ね on drums

115 bars at 202 BPM -- fast, and 2:16 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

50 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.

What the course does

It cuts the song into 41 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.

What BPM is Twisted Fate    ね?

202 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 Twisted Fate    ね 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 42 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

115 bars, about 2:16 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 41 exercises over 11 sittings, about 27 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?
