209 bars at 188 BPM -- fast, and 4:27 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
64 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
silence through bars 1-4, hi-hat through bars 5-49, ride through bars 50-67, snare through bars 68-74, toms through bars 75-76 and snare through bars 77-97, and 14 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 8-10, 13 and 17-19, and 5 more places -- 8.4% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

188 BPM, in 4/4, 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.
64 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 44 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.
