Questions

What BPM is SHINOBI TOP SECRET?

186 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 SHINOBI TOP SECRET hard to play on drums?

67 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 73 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

167 bars, about 3:35 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 69 exercises over 20 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, 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 SHINOBI TOP SECRET?

19 fills to learn, played 36 times: bars 15, 16, 24, 38, 40, 41 and 30 more.
