138 bars, 9:36, at 54 BPM: slow enough that every note is exposed. Crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick and nothing else.
70 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
silence through bars 1-4, hi-hat through bars 5-20, snare through bars 21-28, hi-hat through bars 29-40, snare through bars 41-50 and hi-hat through bars 51-56, and 6 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 22, 25-27 and 44, and 4 more places -- 10.7% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

54 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.
70 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 51 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
