205 bars at 168 BPM -- fast, and 4:53 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
51 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
hi-hat through bars 1-32, snare through bars 33-40, ride through bars 41-52, snare through bars 53-56, hi-hat through bars 57-88 and snare through bars 89-96, and 19 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 1-15, 17-23 and 57-63, and 2 more places -- 21.5% 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 50 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.
168 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.
51 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.
205 bars, about 4:53 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 50 exercises over 13 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.
