Questions

What BPM is Doki Doki Morning?

167 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. At that speed the thirty-second notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.

Is Doki Doki Morning hard to play on drums?

70 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 31 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

152 bars, about 3:38 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 42 exercises over 14 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, 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.

How many fills are in Doki Doki Morning?

6 fills to learn, played 21 times: bars 28, 44, 47, 48, 55, 56 and 15 more.
