RE: timbo drum programming
well that riddim is like your bog standard dancehall riddim but pruned down, so there is no hats, sub-bassdrum etc etc .. the snare overlay is like one of your classic reggea 'military' riff that used to grace alot of older dub tracks where all those snare riff's come from, again..... 3 time, count that 3 time over the beat and you'll hear the beat's construction straight away...
1,2,3 - 1,2,3 - 1,2,3 - 1,2,3 - 1,2 - 1,2 = 16
once you are counting that, you'll see how the snare roll motif comes from the 3-time ripple -
