232 bars at 160 BPM -- fast, and 5:30 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
61 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
snare through bars 1-2, toms through bars 3-4, snare through bars 5-8, hi-hat through bars 9-20, snare through bars 21-24 and hi-hat through bars 25-48, and 39 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 25, 27 and 29, and 29 more places -- 13.8% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

160 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. At that speed the thirty-second notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.
61 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 50 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

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.
