303 bars, 22:52, at 53 BPM: slow enough that every note is exposed. Crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot and nothing else.
70 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how much of it falls off the beat.
silence through bars 1-4, toms through bars 5-9, kick and crashes through bars 10-16, toms through bars 17-21, ride through bars 22-76 and toms through bars 77-78, and 6 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 91-103, 105 and 107-112, and 8 more places -- 12.4% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

70 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 58 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
