97 bars, 5:27, at 70 BPM: slow enough that every note is exposed. Crash, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot and nothing else.
44 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it.
hi-hat through bars 1-26, snare through bars 27-30, hi-hat through bars 31-47, snare through bars 48-49, hi-hat through bars 50-52 and snare through bars 53-58, and 3 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 5-9, 12-13 and 16-20, and 4 more places -- 29.2% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

It cuts the song into 37 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.
70 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.
44 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it. The beat itself is 21 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

crash, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
