Questions

What BPM is my twenty first reason </3?

140 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. The room plays it at any tempo from a quarter of that up to the written one, against the record where the record can follow.

Is my twenty first reason </3 hard to play on drums?

34 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it. The beat itself is 18 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

60 bars, about 1:43 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 6 exercises over 2 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick. Nothing in the part asks for anything else.
