121 bars of 4/4 at a walking 85 BPM, 5:41 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
41 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it.
toms through bar 1, silence through bars 2-6, snare through bars 7-33, hi-hat through bars 34-40, snare through bars 41-43 and hi-hat through bars 44-47, and 9 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 7-14, 16-22 and 24-28, and 4 more places -- 34% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

41 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it. The beat itself is 11 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
