150 bars of 4/4 at a walking 100 BPM, 6:00 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
48 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
silence through bars 1-4, hi-hat through bars 5-28, ride through bars 29-44, hi-hat through bars 45-68, ride through bars 69-77 and silence through bars 78-92, and 5 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 8-10, 12-14 and 16-18, and 13 more places -- 21.2% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

48 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 21 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
