175 bars at 170 BPM -- fast, and 4:07 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
61 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
snare through bars 1-3, kick and crashes through bars 4-9, snare through bars 10-12, hi-hat through bars 13-18, ride through bars 19-20 and hi-hat through bars 21-26, and 23 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 21-26, 29-34 and 72-75, and 1 more place -- 13.7% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

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 39 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
