If anyone is looking for more things like this. I bought this book a while back and it really helped me --- [260 Drum Machine Patterns] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0881888877/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)

260 Drum Machine Patterns is really dated but sounds more or less what you're looking for. It takes about 20 styles (things like afro-cuban, funk , charleston, disco etc) and gives 5-10 typical patterns, then 5-10 break/fills for each. Cheesy, but genuine helpful.

Can second the 'beat dissected' section in Attackmagazine that someone wrote below.

This is a decent guide that came up after my first google search:
The Ultimate Guide to Drum Programming

I'd look into this book too:

One of the things that first drew me to computers and music was finding ways of dealing with drummers. All of the jokes and stereotypes about drummers are true!

But seriously folks...

Anyway, this book:
(http://www.amazon.com/Drum-Machine-Patterns-Leonard-Corp/dp/0881888877)

was super helpful for me. It's basic, visual and useful. So my suggestion is finding something like that. Start with the basics. Build on them, and learn about what human drummers do and learn.

Also, just listening was useful as well. It wasn't long before I realized that pretty much all rock beats are the basic boom-tat-boom-boom-tat ride, for example.

And my explorations helped me to have a better appreciation for drummers.

Good luck!
