Use drum loops, or even better do stuff without drums, release it on a free license and encourage people to do some remixes, you'll probably find plenty of enthusiasm for that sort of thing here. But play around with Hydrogen too. Drums are my weak point also, but I find Hydrogen very forgiving of my lack of talent in this area. -- cheers, tim hall http://glastonburymusic.org.uk/tim
