well here's a 'higher state of conciousness' wink/morillo type groove... but that remix was done with a well know breakbeat which you should have it's pretty common... this is just a ruffish midi approximation, but there it is
it's at 127 and needs a delay set to an aux send, with some delay added to hat, clap/snare & the synth riff on chan_1.... the dalay time should be 354, and about 35-50% feedback.... blend that delay return in to get a roll to the beat...

Ya gotta shuffle those 1/16s quite a bit so that the second 16th note is around where a third triplet would be...
for example...
0 24 48 72 would be normal 16th notes (96ppq)
0 32 48 80 would be a swinging 16th pattern
0 16 32 48 64 80 would be the 16th note triplets
see?
Adds swing. And when you're programming velocities, start simple and give all hats either 64 or 127...work from there. Listen and evaluate...
Also, to add more REAL sounding accents, use a couple of different closed hat samples...some really tight "etching" ticky ones and some pedal-hat sounding "ch" ones with varying decays.
Hmm...what else... don't forget the tamborine! and the agogo. I've found that using these or other cymbal-like percussion really fills things up. I try to keep the agogo level down or it gets too latiny, or it sounds forced. (and also because I'm a silly white boy and my agogo patterns are pure cheese!)
Anyway, that's all I've got for now...

vary your attack times as well, have a hh with a slower attack and vary it's pattern with the normal hh

1) House music is the shit.
2) I live in the midwest (MetroDetroit) so if someone who is probably my age (21) from Chicago can claim to know about House music, so can I.
I personally think that the only house with soul comparable to Chi or NYC that comes out of Europe is the drumtrack Brit-Diva garage and the better French guys of their similar genre. What I'm calling Brit-Diva is like...that Goldie-track on the Pete Tong Ibiza disc (I borrowed it!)... Hey, Traxx from Chicago spins tracks just like that.
But what I'm calling soul is subjective. whatever...
and a lot of American house is bad
(whisper...West Coast...fucking crazyheads in LA)

the decay of the drum hitz matter. try 3 short hi hats
followed by a long one. swing=volume&timing(someone
pick on me by posting a better equation). if you use
cubase go in with the boot. snap to like 3pp (i turn
quantize off). kick notes between the up and the down
beat. i also use the list editor to edit volume and
note length (decay).
also, listen LISTEN listen to the beats that you like.
immitate before you innovate. i even record trax i
like into soundforge so i can SEE what they did...where
they put the beats.
then step back and try to dance to it. how does
