hmm doesnt sound like just volume being changed tho or id just do that. it sounds like the kick and snare become one kinda, and then once the kick goes away it just sounds loud and without the dynamics compression gives

Kind of off topic, but Dinka has quickly become on of my favorite producers as of late. Outstanding mixing, great arrangement and composition, so far everything he (they?) have put out has been great.
+1000 on that. I was trying to avoid bringing it up but the Dinka stuff is just soooo good. The mix is as good as the composition (which is outstanding) and their(?) tracks stand out without being cheesey. Have been a fan of jaytech as well for while now and proff has also bought out some great tracks in past months.

EQ is your friend. Don't be afraid to massively cut out unneeded frequencies to clear up the mud.
Those Vengeance samples are already perfect. Maybe you have too much other frequencies in the range of the clap or snare. I wouldn't suggest compressing any of the snares or claps. What you can do is layer multiple claps and snares, just make sure their level on the mixer is pretty low. The reply I read where they said it took them a while to figure out that the percs were too high, that's correct. Make sure your mix isn't "blaring".

Yeah, what he said -- but don't EQ the claps! EQ your perc and overall mix.
