160 bars at 185 BPM -- fast, and 3:27 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
64 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
hi-hat through bars 1-19, kick and crashes through bars 20-24, hi-hat through bars 25-61, toms through bars 62-63, silence through bars 64-69 and hi-hat through bars 70-113, and 8 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 2-4, 6-8 and 14-15, and 8 more places -- 25.9% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

It cuts the song into 49 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.
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.
64 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 56 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
160 bars, about 3:27 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 49 exercises over 13 sittings, about 27 minutes each.
crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
