139 bars, 7:43, at 72 BPM: slow enough that every note is exposed. Crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick and nothing else.

silence through bars 1-4, ride through bars 5-9, silence through bars 10-20, ride through bars 21-22, hi-hat through bars 23-30 and ride through bars 31-32, and 13 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 23-25, 27-29 and 33-35, and 5 more places -- 19.4% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
