Questions

What BPM is Your Body is a Wonderland?

94 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 Your Body is a Wonderland hard to play on drums?

45 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 36 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

94 bars, about 4:00 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 11 exercises over 3 sittings, about 27 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, snare, mid 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.
