1. Keep your drums mono and pan percussion left and right.
2. Use compression, but use it right, it will do magic with drumsounds.
3. Basslines: If it's big, keep it mono, you don't wandle the needle to skip. A little bit of Chorus can do wonders to a boring Bass Sound.
4. Take your copy of "BT Breaks from the Nu Skool" and burn it. I admit, i've used a few bits of it, but after hearing 8,933,955 tracks with the same BT Loop i've decided to not ever use it again for anything.
5. Make your own Synth Sounds. There's nothing cooler than having your own textures and blips and blops than sampling stuff that's already been sampled a thousand times.
6. Experiment: build weird synths combined of TapeDecks and Guitar Effects or Crosswire old Casio's and Yamaha Toy Keyboards...the results are a library of original sounds that will make your sound more unique.
