85 bars of 8/4 -- not four -- at 160 BPM, 3:41 of playing on crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
54 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how much of it falls off the beat.
toms through bar 1, hi-hat through bars 2-5, kick and crashes through bars 6-13, snare through bars 14-19, silence through bars 20-23 and snare through bars 24-30, and 3 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 24-26 and 28-30 -- 15% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

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 8/4, 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.
54 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 57 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
85 bars, about 3:41 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 17 exercises over 6 sittings, about 24 minutes each.
crash, hi-hat, 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.
