One bar, and 25% of the song

Questions

What BPM is KINTSUGI PT1?

165 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 KINTSUGI PT1 hard to play on drums?

53 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 51 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

139 bars, about 3:14 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 13 exercises over 4 sittings, about 28 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare and kick. Nothing in the part asks for anything else.
