96 bars of 4/4 at a walking 108 BPM, 3:32 of playing, on crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

toms through bars 1-36, silence through bars 37-43, toms through bars 44-46, silence through bars 47-50, toms through bars 51-91 and hi-hat through bars 92-93, and 1 more change after that.
