105 bars, 5:50, at 72 BPM: slow enough that every note is exposed. Crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot and nothing else.
73 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how much of it falls off the beat.
silence through bars 1-5, hi-hat through bars 6-33, toms through bars 34-41, hi-hat through bars 42-63, ride through bars 64-77 and toms through bars 78-105.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 89-99 -- 10.9% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

It cuts the song into 55 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.
72 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.
73 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 51 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
105 bars, about 5:50 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 55 exercises over 18 sittings, about 25 minutes each.
crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
