Theres nothing to improve on older tracks! Shame on you 
old tracks are perfect
kickin hard, kickin hard, k k k kk k k k kk kickin hard.
i even remember the video of this..
Sidechaining isnt all about heavily pumping stuff.
Its been used for years on all sorts of musical styles. For a start you can use sidechains to de-ess vocals (google it) or to gate stuff effectively, and a whole load of other interesting stuff that can be devastatingly effective.
When all is said and done, it's just another tool at your disposal, and there is no 'right' way to use it.
As long as you use it in a way you see fit, and preferably creatively, then go nuts.

classic club music +1
I still can't believe that the donk they found on their DX7 and used on that track basically created an entire genre of music.

Half a bar is longer than a FULL 808 kick, which EATS the space in the bottom end of a track like nothing else.

Speaking of not using sidechaining, I remembered back to this older track I did, long before I even knew what sidechaining was and I think it turned out pretty good. This has a lot to do with the fact that its psytrance so the kick is snappy and short so it doesn't collide with the bassline by default. With trance though and the typical long subby kicks, sidechaining would be critical IMO.

Not sure if a poor example helps
Modeate/Heavyish sidechained bass against kick

Kinda gives it that "oompa" feeling but you can turn down the gain to adjust results
