silence through bars 1-4, snare through bars 5-20, ride through bars 21-23, hi-hat through bars 24-28, silence through bars 29-34 and toms through bars 35-40, and 7 more changes after that.

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 61-66 and 68-73 -- 13.2% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

It cuts the song into 52 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.
