Questions

What BPM is Gungrave (Re-Tab)?

200 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 Gungrave (Re-Tab) hard to play on drums?

52 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 25 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

178 bars, about 3:53 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 50 exercises over 13 sittings, about 28 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, 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.

How many fills are in Gungrave (Re-Tab)?

13 fills to learn, played 36 times: bars 1, 2, 3, 4, 12, 16 and 30 more.
