136 bars at 170 BPM -- fast, and 3:12 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
55 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 1-8, hi-hat through bars 9-16, snare through bars 17-24, hi-hat through bars 25-28, snare through bars 29-33 and silence through bars 34-40, and 12 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 41-48, 73-79 and 81-88, and 2 more places -- 32.5% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.
