I've noticed that a good drum loop needs plenty of little quiet notes - 
to give it a moving feeling and I'm convinced they are not quantized. If 
everything is quantized it will sound like crap. 

I'm also wondering how steady the beat is. When there is a pause do the 
drop it down from 130 bpm to 120 then back up or something like that?
