124 bars, 6:37, at 75 BPM: slow enough that every note is exposed. Crash, ride, snare, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot and nothing else.

silence through bars 1-4, ride through bars 5-8, silence through bars 9-16, ride through bars 17-24, silence through bars 25-32 and ride through bars 33-36, and 4 more changes after that.
