163 bars at 159 BPM -- fast, and 4:06 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
50 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 1-16, hi-hat through bars 17-62, ride through bars 63-76, hi-hat through bars 77-106, ride through bars 107-120 and hi-hat through bars 121-134, and 4 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 18-20, 22-23 and 26-30, and 16 more places -- 27.2% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

159 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. At that speed the sixteenth notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.
50 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 32 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
