122 bars of 8/4 -- not four -- at 160 BPM, 4:41 of playing on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
51 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
toms through bars 1-2, hi-hat through bars 3-14, toms through bars 15-18, hi-hat through bars 19-26, ride through bars 27-28 and hi-hat through bars 29-43, and 5 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 19-26 -- 12.5% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

It cuts the song into 25 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.
160 BPM, in 8/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. At that speed the thirty-second notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.
51 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 69 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
122 bars, about 4:41 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 25 exercises over 7 sittings, about 27 minutes each.
