Hey guys, don't mean to look stupid but I'm new here. Lately on FL Studio, I've been trying to almost mimic the drum kit from "The Zone" by The Weeknd. Any tips on how to create a similar sound?

Also, what instruments create the main melody of the song? I don't know if they're pads or whatever. Honestly, this is what I want to figure out the most because the sound of it is so sick.. the sound really makes the song sound "zoned out".

If anyone can help me with these tips please? And if not FL Studio, what program should I use to try this? Much appreciated!

Those drums sound live with layered 808s. Everything unquantized too.

Live drums are there put together with 808 drums.

Unquantized meaning the drums aren't 'perfectly' on time
