What are some good computer programs for producing beats and drum loops?

I am looking to start making some synthesized beats and drum loops. Most of what I will be doing is experimental rock and maybe some techno and hiphop style beats.





Considering the fact that I am not too well-versed in this area, i am hoping you all can help me find what I am looking for.





Thanks in advance.

Hydrogen for Linux is very, very good and should do the job.





If you are looking for a multimedia oriented workspace, you might want to consider getting Ubuntu Studio.
