Questions

What BPM is Unbreakable?

125 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 Unbreakable hard to play on drums?

77 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 50 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

147 bars, about 4:42 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 53 exercises over 15 sittings, about 27 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 Unbreakable?

18 fills to learn, played 66 times: bars 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 60 more.
