123 bars at 160 BPM -- fast, and 3:05 of it without a break -- on crash, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
47 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, toms through bars 5-30, silence through bars 31-36, toms through bars 37-39, kick and crashes through bars 40-41 and toms through bars 42-55, and 6 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 22-24, 26 and 28, and 9 more places -- 29.5% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

It cuts the song into 21 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.
160 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. At that speed the thirty-second notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.
47 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 32 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
123 bars, about 3:05 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 21 exercises over 7 sittings, about 24 minutes each.
crash, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
