129 bars of 4/4 at a walking 100 BPM, 5:10 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
35 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it.
kick and crashes through bars 1-8, hi-hat through bars 9-25, silence through bars 26-27, hi-hat through bars 28-44, snare through bars 45-56 and hi-hat through bars 57-80, and 3 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 10-22, 30 and 32-43, and 2 more places -- 31.5% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.
