Help with making drums

Is there a trick to make drums sounds as crazy as this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywshfi8wz1s Or any videos someone can link me to about it?

OK, I'm not a super-expert, but I think that you can achieve this taking well chosen samples as a starting point. You can look into the Newloops or Loopmasters samples in AT. Everything except the low deep kick seems to be re-pitched a bit higher, high-pass filtered to make it lighter and separated from the low frequency drums (there's also a "light" kick drum in there, making a fast pattern) and they also seem to have used extreme panning for each sound. By contrast, the low kick/tom could be just a sine wave of low frequency layered on top of a kick sample that provides the attack, or a kick sample with the fundamental frequency boosted as much as it can go and, of course, playing a more sparse pattern. I think the the impact is all about contrast: extreme low frequency versus higher frequency with nothing in between, fast patterns with lots of hits versus slow patterns with just a few far apart hits, low pitching of samples versus high-pitching, lots of filtering and extreme panning. That's what i can say, hope it helps!
