Reso or Excision. Not many people think of Excision for his percussion but listen to his No Holds Barred remix, you'll see how mental it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieJiYPWrZ5k&hd=1

sorry but that has the exact same BOOM PSH drum pattern as every single other brostep track out there. there's a little bit of hihat work going on but that's about it.
to be fair i agree with OP, reso and the widdler are both on point with their drumwork

My votes go to DLX, ITAL TEK, and Toasty
Listen to the whole track not just 2 bars, jeeze. The percussion in all of his tracks changes throughout each phrase. Sometimes he's got the standard 1-3 pattern but then he goes into 4/4 house or even breaks patterns as well. As far as the hi-hat work goes, it makes more than a little difference to the groove of the track. Not to mention his sounds are surreal.
