Sorry, I use OD for OverDrive too.

TH89:
THIS is an Overdriven 909:

I made it just for you. :p

KharBevNor:
Not bad, not bad.

My personal fave drum-loops (that I myself have done) are probably on this track:

Vinland

Although there's some noise percussion I've done I'm pretty keen on, but I don't think I have it online.

TH89:
Sounds interesting but the drums are very quiet!

I can't hear them very well!

SpacemanSpiff:
I just listened to it and it's nice. The breaks in there sound nifty, however, I would work on the intro. This is not really the way a drummer would play it, it sounds too much like electronic music for my taste. It's too much bass drum and not enough ... well, everything else, basically.
Also, you could try experimenting with different time signatures (this seems to be pretty much only 4/4, try 3/4, it's pretty easy as well and sounds quite different). Also, you could try playing different speeds on the hi-hat (right now it's pretty much just 1/4 beats on the hi-hat from what I've heard, try 1/8 or maybe throw in a couple of 1/16, this adds some spice and it grooves more).
Then, you could also try breaking away from the usual bass drum on 1 + 3 and snare on 2 + 4 system, especially varying the position of the snare is rather easy to play and yields some good results.
Also, in the end, one thing: The song ends with a crash cymbal, that's a good thing. However, whenever you play a crash cymbal, try also playing the bass drum. It adds more oomph, and in most cases, that's what drummers play as well.

That said, I don't want to sound negative here or anything. This stuff is pretty good, those are merely suggestions from a drummer.
Can you actually play drums (as in: took some lessons or whatever)? Because if not, what you produced there is even better.
