180 bars at 180 BPM -- fast, and 4:04 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
79 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
snare through bars 1-2, ride through bars 3-21, hi-hat through bars 22-27, snare through bars 28-50, ride through bars 51-64 and hi-hat through bars 65-70, and 21 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 11, 13-14 and 16, and 4 more places -- 5.1% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

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.
180 BPM, in 4/4, 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.
79 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 62 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

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.
