Yeah, i can. ;-)
Try http://smack.berlios.de/ All the drums are patches for om if you
look through them you can get a good idea about  drum synthesis or you
can just use most of them as they are. You can also check out my
thesis about drum synthesis. http://smack.berlios.de/thesis.pdf Though
it mostly discusses physical synthesis and not analog style synthesis.

If you've got any questions or new drum patches etc give me a yell.
