'Flabb' - New Original Music - A Quick, Weird Little Loop

This is a weird idea from the other night,

which I think has some potential though it definitely needs some tweaking. I had started with the session in 5/8, though that isn't very obvious with the kooky drum pattern. The chords, pictured below, are super basic, and also don't really alude to the 5/8 meter at all. The synth bass wound up being my favorite part I think, I like the weird pitch bending stuff that happens at the start of each repetition. Now for the drums; I don't know how I stumbled onto the weird beat, it mostly happened because the snare hit in that drumkit is a snare and hi-hat pattern with its own internal rhythm, so when I dropped in a kick then snare, it had a groove already. With the added hi-hats on top, it wound up having a lilting vibe, which I sort of just leaned it, and we wound up with this. I do think the drums need work, there are some hits that are maybe TOO off, and it could feel a bit more cohesive, so I'll mess around with it, see where things go.
