First off, the inspiration for the lyric was my MacBook Pro being unable to connect to my wireless mouse. I kid you not, that’s where it started. It sort of evolved into a fictional account of one of my customer’s network about to crash. I am an uber nerd and I am proud of it.
When I originally worked this out on my iPad I had it set for 3/4 time. I should have set it for 6/8. I wanted an eighth note pulse. Instead of fixing things properly, I kept it on 3/4 and drastically increased the tempo. Close enough.
Then I ported the file over to my Mac and tried to replace my shitty drums with GarageBand’s Drummer.
Oh yeah… that ridiculously fast tempo. Somehow though… I like the hyperactive drums. Let’s keep it! Rawk!
