This is a song that captures the arrival of spring with a refreshing touch.

The protagonist strives to move forward while staying true to themselves in a new environment, offering moments anyone can relate to.

Official HIGE DANDism – Anarchy [Official Video]

For beginner drummers who shy away thinking “Higedan’s songs seem hard!”, here’s one of their tracks I’d like you to try—it’s relatively easy to play among their catalog.

It consists of repeated patterns of three similar beats, and there are no complex fills or grooves, so with a bit of practice many people should be able to play it.

The kick drum in this song uses a lot of offbeat strokes, so start by getting comfortable with that.

Once you can play the kick on the offbeats, you’ll definitely expand your toolkit for future performances! One thing to watch out for in this song is that the three types of phrases are similar and switch frequently between sections.

Until you’ve grasped the details of each beat, it’s easy to get mixed up, so at first I recommend practicing while looking at the sheet music to understand the structure.

ESCAPADEOfisharu Higedan Dism38rank/position

ESCAPADE

Official HIGE DANDism has Black music as one of their roots, and their song “ESCAPADE” features many phrases that evoke 1970s funk among the various styles of Black music.

The beginning is characterized by a bouncy groove that feels distinctly funky, but from there the melody develops into a more orthodox J-pop vocal line, so the level of difficulty isn’t that high.

Even the falsetto at the end of the chorus has clearly defined breathing points, so you’re unlikely to go off pitch.

Travel is better with companions.

Tabi wa Michizure,” included on their major-label debut album “Traveler.” The track was used in a Suzuki Swift commercial, and its funky guitars and beats create a happy vibe that really lifts your spirits.

For a HIGEDAN song, the vocal range isn’t that wide, so the barrier to entry is relatively low.

However, because fast melodies appear over a bouncy shuffle rhythm, be mindful to articulate clearly.

Once you learn it slowly, it’s an easy song to sing at karaoke—so why not give it a try?
