The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 1-51 -- 28.5% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.
It is played on the hi-hat, counted in thirty-second notes. On its own it scores 28 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- and the thing that decides that is how much of it falls off the beat.
The whole song is 59 out of 100, so the beat is not the hard part: what costs you is everything around it, the joins and the fills.
The room opens this beat on its simplest reduction, at 105 BPM, and adds the notes back a rung at a time -- 3 of them. Nothing is a matter of opinion: each rung has a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next one.
Tempo goes 105, 123 and 140 BPM, and the gate at each one is 8 loops in a row with no wrong note and no wobble in the time.
PRACTISE THIS BEAT →A one-bar groove on hi-hat, in 4/4 at 140 BPM, counted in thirty-second notes. It is written out above, and it covers 28.5% of the bars the kit plays.
Bars 1-51. The time is kept on the hi-hat to start with, and it changes 10 times over the song.
28 out of 100 on its own -- a fair first song. The song as a whole is 59 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
