136 bars of 4/4 at a walking 95 BPM, 5:19 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.

silence through bars 1-4, hi-hat through bars 5-41, ride through bars 42-43, kick and crashes through bars 44-46, ride through bars 47-51 and snare through bars 52-53, and 11 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 17-26, 29-38 and 60-67, and 1 more place -- 22% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
