Highlight on the hi-hats
Sounds like quality realistic drums that would mix well in most styles. What stands out for me is all the hi-hat samples (tip and shank) at various openings assigned to two octaves of white keys. You can alternate for subtle variation and get the hi-hat "talking". Excellent to replace a drummer if you don't have the budget for a real one. (I haven't even listened to the patterns once because I don't use patterns in my creative flow)
