i think ya should pm exhumed, that would be a good place to start.
also, apply for producer rights so we can hear how your beats are
made and then give specific advice n help.
good luck.

his drums have a lot of fat sound in it, and if you want something liek how he's doing.
you need a non stop high hats, a bongo line that has deep mids in it, 200-500hz and a snare to hit randomly.
basicly 2 drum breaks to play at the same time. one more acoustic the other more tech.
unless you mena the break, that's a amen and a tr-amen or firefight, then he goes into a house... but i ma guessing you mean the verse.
yea it's 2 drum breaks going at a time, sounds chaotic, it's a good way to go for a hectic drum line that isn't over powering. layering drums is always a good way to go for Hard Drums. check out my drum breaks for some hardness. PLUG

try boosting the bass on your kicks. maybe a good oomph at 90.
a bit of reverb might help too, maybe.

make sure they are not in stereo, that will make them less punchy and cover up the rest of your mix. also try fixing the rest of your track so that the drums have their own space... kind of like a puzzle. if you have sub-bass you don't need a massive low end thump in your kick. give a boost at 180hz on the snare see if that fattens it up. and like halph-price said... layer up your sounds.

EQing helps alot yes, i also found it helps alot that when you are working with break beats, have one track with the clean beat that you are using, and another one with the same beat but with allyour breaks etc.
It makes it really fat and consistent in my opinion.
Other than that experiment with rythms and paterns that sound like they have a good flow together to get the roll in your break to sound thundering and powerfull.
