I have bad tinnitus, and once in a while it will drown out all sound and focus on the ringing. During this time, sound turns into this thing that lives at the back of my head, as if I put my fingers into my ears, like I'm interpreting the sound through vibrations or something. I can't really explain it, but it's a "different way" of hearing. Sounds a lot like what you're experiencing.
PS: Don't blast Tool albums for two decades strait into your ears.
I'm not deaf, but just in case you don't get an answer that stems from personal experience:
Your hearing loss in the one ear is (I'm assuming) caused by the ear canal being blocked. Your sensory organ still hears you chewing because the sound is transferred through the bones of your skull to your ear.
A deaf person has a different problem: their sensory organ is damaged or missing, so it doesn't matter where the sound comes from, they don't hear it.
Reading this made me wonder if a deaf person could use bone induction headphones to listen to music kinda. But now I'm assuming it's the same answer given your explanation since the drum would have to vibrate as well
It could still allow you to feel the music, though. But I would expect this to be difficult for people who have never learned an instrument.
Some heavy bass would still be cool though
Someone needs to make a vibrator with aux in so you can really feel the music
They make vibration speakers, just print a dildo and use a condom. Prototype done.
Its similar to the phenomena behind bone conducting headphones since your teeth are technically bone.
