65 bars of 4/4 at a walking 82 BPM, 3:09 of playing, on crash, hi-hat, snare, kick and hi-hat foot.
38 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it.
kick and crashes through bars 1-4, silence through bars 5-6, hi-hat through bars 7-12, snare through bars 13-15, hi-hat through bars 16-25 and snare through bars 26-27, and 8 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 1-3, 26-27 and 31-36, and 2 more places -- 30.5% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

It cuts the song into 22 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.
82 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. The room plays it at any tempo from a quarter of that up to the written one, against the record where the record can follow.
38 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it. The beat itself is 17 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
