Questions

What BPM is We Are Sudamerican Rockers?

135 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth 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 We Are Sudamerican Rockers hard to play on drums?

48 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 43 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

125 bars, about 3:42 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 18 exercises over 5 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

hi-hat, snare, high tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
