184 bars at 210 BPM -- fast, and 3:30 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
53 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how many notes a second it asks for.
kick and crashes through bars 1-8, hi-hat through bars 9-16, snare through bars 17-18, silence through bars 19-22, kick and crashes through bars 23-25 and snare through bars 26-42, and 18 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 27-29, 31-33 and 35-37, and 5 more places -- 14.7% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
