I came up with the “steel drum ragtime” idea playing around with MIDI files back in the 90s. Somehow, the MIDI steel drum sound seems to work really well with ragtime songs to my ears. This particular song, “The Easy Winners” is really fast in the version I made. On the original sheet music it says “Not Fast”… so maybe I’ll make a slower version sometime. But I think this version sounds cool.
