209 bars at 170 BPM -- fast, and 4:55 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
61 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 1-15, toms through bars 16-25, silence through bars 26-33, snare through bars 34-48, toms through bars 49-57 and snare through bars 58-66, and 9 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 74-76, 78-80 and 82-84, and 8 more places -- 25% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

It cuts the song into 54 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.
170 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.
61 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 32 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
