What the course does

It cuts the song into 40 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.

  1. The grooves the song is built on -- A -- 2 exercises, about 20 minutes.
  2. The grooves the song is built on -- C -- 3 exercises, about 26 minutes.
  3. The grooves the song is built on -- E -- 3 exercises, about 26 minutes.
  4. Through the Chorus and Part E -- 5 exercises, about 29 minutes.

Questions

What BPM is Warsaw Speedwolf?

210 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 Warsaw Speedwolf hard to play on drums?

73 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 52 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

130 bars, about 2:29 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 40 exercises over 12 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, 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 Warsaw Speedwolf?

8 fills to learn, played 14 times: bars 17, 21, 29, 37, 41, 57 and 8 more.
