I put a reverse clap in every single track I do
that, and I'm really good at making really small edits and glitchiness with an audio clip I want to manipulate. if I know exactly what I want in terms of timing and sound, I can usually get there pretty quickly with a little bit of tweaking

I like to think I can do many things well, but based on the feedback I've gotten from various tracks, what seems to stand out the most is the audio editing and creative FX. Right now I'm trying to get the hang of FM synthesis and Reaktor to create even cooler effects.
Oh, and basslines too. A lot of the trance producers don't work hard enough on their basslines. When I go out, I like to dance, so I like me some bass.

Nice topic!
I think my trademark are sick FM/AM synths. They are great especially in psy to fill the extra gap between melodies, bass and percussion, plus they can add a lot of "cybernetic" atmosphere
Here's an example of what I am talking about : http://www.cybernetika.de/brainwash.mp3
I think I'm good at seeing the potential behind obscure, often very abstract sounding samples, aka the samples in the soundbanks that everyone walks right by, and then mixing them into tracks to unleash the potential

my secret weapon is a secret!
reverbs on every clap/snare i use
2-layer kicks, delay on each hat to make it more fuller, 2 rev crashes (1 playing a few keys higher then the other)
Hey. My secret weapon... Thats a really tough call. That would have to be my use of effects and use of subtletes in tracks. It helps a lot to know what is out there and what isnt. It helps even more if you can create things that arent easily done or almost impossible to recreate. These are the things that create a unique track.
