168 bars at 185 BPM -- fast, and 3:37 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
56 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 1-17, snare through bars 18-31, toms through bars 32-34, silence through bars 35-37, toms through bars 38-41 and hi-hat through bars 42-58, and 15 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 43-49 and 51-57 -- 9.9% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

185 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. At that speed the sixteenth notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.
56 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 47 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
