Actually, not quantizing hats and other hi-end hits isn't that crazy. In fact, I usually play them by hand without quantization, while I keep the low-end and mid-hits quantized. That way you have a solid rhythm, but nice groove over it. Another way to give your drums some groove is to mess with the middle hits (snares/claps/etc) so some layers aren't EXACTLY on time. For example, I might have a snare perfectly on the 3rd beat, but have a snap a few milliseconds before and a clap with some short reverb a few milliseconds after. It's all about experimenting and having fun with it! Hope this helped in some way!
good advice right there.
