194 bars at 175 BPM -- fast, and 4:26 of it without a break -- 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 1-4, ride through bars 5-20, silence through bars 21-32, snare through bars 33-36, ride through bars 37-48 and hi-hat through bars 49-56, and 10 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 5-7, 9-11 and 13-15, and 13 more places -- 32.9% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

175 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.
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 44 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
