87 bars of 4/4 at a walking 82 BPM, 4:15 of playing, on ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom and kick.
63 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 1-6, ride through bars 7-34, hi-hat through bars 35-40, ride through bars 41-60, hi-hat through bars 61-62 and ride through bars 63-87.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 7-12, 21-26 and 49-60 -- 27.6% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.
