127 bars at 157 BPM -- fast, and 3:14 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.

silence through bars 1-4, hi-hat through bars 5-28, snare through bars 29-44, hi-hat through bars 45-78, snare through bars 79-109 and hi-hat through bars 110-127.
