Great percussion stuff!

I have a question: where did you get your drum samples?

Whenever I ask other electronic musicians about their great drum sounds, they tend to shrug and say, "use Battery".

Of course, Battery is proprietary closedware, so it's of no use to me.

Where do you (or anyone else) get great drum sounds?

I've gotten a lot of mileage out of Hydrogen but the total of kits available for it seems to have topped out at about a dozen and stopped there.
