I downloaded the track "nasty valve1" an gave it a listen. Hmmm the Intro is quite impressing - lot of personality, cool groove. But after 20 seconds or so i hear a GM-Drumkit wich reminds me of a Yamaha middleclass PSR-Preset - not that much personality anymore - quite plastic i must say. I do not blame this on your friend/musician - i guess the problem is iiuwsynth`s soundfont-bullshit. Whithout an implementation of a real drumsampler, Muse cannot do much better i fear. The Synthsounds are very promising though...
