My notes from this Short
Main kick, top kick, rumble and noise
I start with the elements you need to have in these kicks: a main kick layered with a top kick, a rumble, and a noise, like a fan or stuff you've recorded outside.
Two hi-hat loops an octave apart
Now add two hi-hat loops. One of these loops needs to be pitched down one octave, and the other loop doesn't.
One final channel with a clipper and inflator
Put all samples in the mixer and route them to one channel. In this final channel, add a soft clipper and squash the post gain, then add an inflator to squash it against the zero dB threshold. This way you get a little bit more power out of your kick.
