107 bars of 4/4 at a walking 95 BPM, 4:30 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
39 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it.
silence through bars 1-3, ride through bars 4-11, kick and crashes through bars 12-19, hi-hat through bars 20-33, toms through bars 34-35 and snare through bars 36-45, and 4 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 36-42, 44-45 and 100-107 -- 29.3% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.
