133 bars, 7:55, at 67 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.
64 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 5-34, ride through bars 35-45, hi-hat through bars 46-66, ride through bars 67-77 and hi-hat through bars 78-82, and 6 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 15-20, 23-27 and 47-52, and 1 more place -- 17.1% 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 41 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.
67 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.
64 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 37 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
133 bars, about 7:55 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 41 exercises over 11 sittings, about 28 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.
