72 bars of 8/4 -- not four -- at 176 BPM, 3:15 of playing on crash, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
45 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
kick and crashes through bars 1-4, hi-hat through bars 5-12, snare through bars 13-24, hi-hat through bars 25-29, snare through bars 30-36 and silence through bars 37-72.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 5-7 and 9-11 -- 16.7% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

176 BPM, in 8/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. At that speed the sixteenth notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.
45 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 70 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
72 bars, about 3:15 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 20 exercises over 6 sittings, about 27 minutes each.
crash, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
