Questions

What BPM is kagefumii?

70 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.

Is kagefumii hard to play on drums?

76 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 74 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

82 bars, about 4:36 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 32 exercises over 12 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid 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 kagefumii?

10 fills to learn, played 29 times: bars 5, 9, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 23 more.
