Trying to work on rhythmic interest without using explicit percussion instruments. I've always preferred to go that route because I'm not happy with my skills in building percussive lines, and I've recently been inspired by Daft Punk's release of Random Access Memories (Drumless Edition). The track is a lot louder than I expected, fair warning. 

I'd say this is a super successful exploration of rhythm without percussion instruments, still sounds plenty "percussive" to me! Feels like suspense/tension to me. I've only listened to a few of the drumless RAM songs but was surprised with how well they still worked.
