162 bars at 166 BPM -- fast, and 3:54 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
52 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
hi-hat through bars 1-97, snare through bars 98-113, hi-hat through bars 114-121, ride through bars 122-124, hi-hat through bars 125-131 and ride through bars 132-133, and 4 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 2, 4-24 and 30-44, and 2 more places -- 34.2% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

It cuts the song into 40 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.
166 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.
52 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 42 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
