Questions

What BPM is 天体観測 / Tentaikansoku?

165 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 天体観測 / Tentaikansoku 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 44 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

171 bars, about 4:09 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 56 exercises over 16 sittings, about 27 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, 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 天体観測 / Tentaikansoku?

15 fills to learn, played 52 times: bars 18, 19, 35, 39, 40, 41 and 46 more.
