It's not that hard.  When I've done d'n'b, usually it isn't like programming
just the average breaks or something, it's a lot of mad-ass weird time sig.
stuff.  I've only done it a couple times, and it's mostly novelty.  It doesn't
sound quantized really.  You can't really get that live drum warmth though,
but that's the same with any programmed drums.
