Why not actually sample them yourself? I mean the amen break wasn't
downloaded from an ftp server. Someone had to find it and use it. i had
some pretty good results recordring a drummer friend of mine playing some
beats and then I ran them through some effects and loaded it into my
sampler.

But...analogsamples.com is alright. I think if you are looking for
'weird' drum sounds you will have to make them yourself. I mean think
about it for a second, what might sound weird to you might sound totally
different to someone else. It's hard to explain what a weird drum sample
really is. Shit, I have a Stockhausen recording for piano, percussion and
synthesizer and that has some very unique sounds, but I wouldn't call
them weird.

Yes! Paia is the bomb. I'm currently building one of their Theremins. A
friend of mine build a tube amp from them and it sounds great. As far as
the quality, they use very high quality components since they don't have
to worry about the cost of assembling them. The quality of the finished
unit is obviously up to you.

>I'm looking into purchasing a vocoder
Vocoders are many and varied (actually, most telephone systems use a form
of vocoding). Csound has some good vocoder algorithms. I have a program
called sonicWORX Artist that has many vocoders. IRCAM's software division
makes a vocoder.

It could be a granular synthesis program. That means it extracts the
waveform data into small bands or 'grains' and rearranges them in a
different order (as far as I know).
Have fun.
