111 bars, 5:55, at 75 BPM: slow enough that every note is exposed. Crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, kick and hi-hat foot and nothing else.
59 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
hi-hat through bars 1-16, ride through bars 17-24, hi-hat through bars 25-40, ride through bars 41-48, hi-hat through bars 49-52 and ride through bars 53-68, and 4 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 1-12, 25-36 and 49-52, and 1 more place -- 33.3% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

75 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.
59 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 50 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
111 bars, about 5:55 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 20 exercises over 6 sittings, about 24 minutes each.
crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
