Hello - Versatile drum/perc sample set for dance/hip-hop/pop etc?

Hi folks - mainly rock guy, but I do some programming too, and am starting to do a few singer-songwriter collabs with a bit of electronica

But my sample collection is emabarassingly small to say the least.

Back in my Logic/Mac OS9 days I had some fun with Reason, and I'm pondering my next move.

When I used logic I used to create loops and patterns on the arrange page... Never used to use Midi

Now I'm running PTLE Windows XP, and my "rock" drum plugin is Addictive Drums, which I'm absolutely loving...

SO:

1) Can you recommend a decent sample set?

2) Would it be better to get something like Reason as a programming tool with its library of sounds and synths?

thanks in antici.....pation

I wouldn't recommend this for house music or techno particularly, but for singer/songwriter type electronica I would recommend EZdrummer.
It's super easy to use and the percussion sounds on these would probably cover a wide base:
Toontrack®
Toontrack®

They can be programmed from scratch or you can use the pre-programmed loops.
