81 bars, 7:03, at 53 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.
69 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
silence through bars 1-9, hi-hat through bars 10-17, ride through bars 18-30, snare through bars 31-43, hi-hat through bars 44-57 and ride through bars 58-73, and 1 more change after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 59-66 -- 11.6% 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 28 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.
53 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.
69 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 19 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
81 bars, about 7:03 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 28 exercises over 10 sittings, about 26 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.
