I guess my question wasn't clear enough, sorry guys. Where can I get drum samples that sound like those high hats, snares, and kicks he was using? I'm not interested in what he cut out of the song in the first couple of seconds, I'm interested in getting the drum sounds he added to the chopped samples.

Some people use their samplers to create their samples as crazy as that sounds.

A group of different kick/snare/hat sounds, layered and EQd can give you an exponential number of totally different NEW sounds.

I've not listened to the clip you posted up but if it was done by a good producer, chances are he didn't use a sample pack.

True I get my drum samples from my vast collection of turntablist battle weapons. You can take a simple kick snare combo, layer it, add some eq to it and turn it into a totally new kick and snare.
