265 bars of 4/4 at a walking 87 BPM, 12:19 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
74 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how much of it falls off the beat.
silence through bars 1-9, ride through bars 10-17, hi-hat through bars 18-29, ride through bars 30-33, snare through bars 34-36 and toms through bars 37-41, and 32 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 144-150, 156-158 and 260 -- 4.6% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

87 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.
74 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 40 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
