One bar, and 13% of the song

Questions

What BPM is your colors, your feeling?

199 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 your colors, your feeling hard to play on drums?

58 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 24 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

136 bars, about 2:43 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 56 exercises over 15 sittings, about 28 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 your colors, your feeling?

17 fills to learn, played 39 times: bars 11, 16, 17, 19, 21, 34 and 33 more.
