120 bars at 215 BPM -- fast, and 2:14 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
73 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
hi-hat through bars 1-9, silence through bars 10-21, hi-hat through bars 22-27, snare through bars 28-55, hi-hat through bars 56-59 and ride through bars 60-63, and 9 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 14-21, 32-39 and 88-95 -- 20.7% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

It cuts the song into 30 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.
215 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.
73 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 62 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
