230 bars at 190 BPM -- fast, and 4:50 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
58 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, kick and crashes through bars 5-6, snare through bars 7-16, hi-hat through bars 17-25, toms through bars 26-32 and hi-hat through bars 33-56, and 19 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 9-15, 17-19 and 21-22, and 9 more places -- 17.3% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

190 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.
58 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 34 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
