Would make a beautiful song. I would love to interpret the imagery on the drumset. Hollow, as no cymbal defining the beats, snare recorded on overhead mics (think the breathy snare sound of Mercy, Mercy Me ... or World In My Eyes - the electronic version of the same). The sound/feeling of the air and steam, the crowded streets; the weight of the rocks and stones on the floor tom and bass drum. Basically trying to touch as few instruments as possible to imlpy a structure, a hollow structure...
