234 bars of 4/4 at 122 BPM, about 7:42 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
61 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
silence through bars 1-3, toms through bars 4-32, silence through bars 33-50, hi-hat through bars 51-68, snare through bars 69-76 and ride through bars 77-86, and 9 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 77-86, 91-94 and 99-103, and 8 more places -- 33.2% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

122 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. The room plays it at any tempo from a quarter of that up to the written one, against the record where the record can follow.
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 42 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
