60 bars of 4/4 at 120 BPM, about 2:02 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
80 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how much of it falls off the beat.
hi-hat through bar 1, silence through bars 2-21, hi-hat through bars 22-41, toms through bars 42-52, hi-hat through bars 53-56 and snare through bars 57-60.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 26-30, 32 and 34 -- 17.5% 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 19 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.
120 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. The room plays it at any tempo from a quarter of that up to the written one, against the record where the record can follow.
80 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 87 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
60 bars, about 2:02 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 19 exercises over 8 sittings, about 24 minutes each.
crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
