147 bars of 3/4 -- not four -- at 112 BPM, 3:56 of playing on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

silence through bars 1-4, hi-hat through bars 5-6, snare through bars 7-10, toms through bars 11-12, hi-hat through bars 13-24 and ride through bars 25-30, and 16 more changes after that.
