The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 7-13, 15-17 and 23-25, and 8 more places -- 26.2% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

Questions

What BPM is Rashinban?

180 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 Rashinban hard to play on drums?

59 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 42 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

110 bars, about 2:27 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 39 exercises over 11 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in Rashinban?

5 fills to learn, played 10 times: bars 14, 18, 19, 20, 21, 27 and 4 more.
