90 bars of 4/4 at a walking 94 BPM, 3:50 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
37 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it.
toms through bars 1-3, ride through bars 4-7, silence through bars 8-23, hi-hat through bars 24-35, silence through bars 36-51 and snare through bars 52-55, and 5 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 56-63 and 68-79 -- 34.5% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.
