deductible-hittin' beats

I used to almost always start tracks with a harmonic or melodic idea from sitting in front of the piano. Here lately they've mostly been springing out a synth patch or some m8 table gimmick. (And eventually, I have to turn back to the piano to work my way out of the hole I've dug myself into.)
This one started with the little chimey-sequence at beginning. It was so pleasant and happy, and I thought it'd be sort of strange to put wild drums against it. So that's sort of what I did. At one point I intended to render a drum loop down and then chop it up breakbeat style. But the drums took center stage and I just kept developing them in place. More flexible and more natural to do weird tuples and stuff anyway.
Also, every time someone comments about how crazy my drums were, it just makes me want to make them crazier next time.
