also use ghost hits... (perc hits with a lower volume than the main hits)
  An Eagle may soar, but Weasels don't get sucked into jet engines. |

Many loops will do the difference . You can take 140 Bpm track to be sound 145 , All by illusion of combine high and low .

first I sorry about the bad english.
I like to write the kick snare hihats first then I try to add a loop for the driven feel and after that I make a percussion loop manually that fit the groove.at the end when I got a descent groove I start playing with everything, change the place of the snare or the percussions etc..
offcourse u need to use EQ's, volume, panning & FX.. GoodLuck !

Have you checked the Dino Psaras sample cd?
http://www.loopmasters.com/product/details/322
The percussion stuff was very inspiring to me.
Dino uses something that he calls "groove helpers"!
This was a totally new concept to me, at least on trance.
I never mixed perc sounds with anything else, except on minimal techno...
Ex: tiny synth notes layered with percussive sounds, very subtle. 
Not just plain percussion patterns.

'Cardinals Cartel', are you fukin kidding me?
Maybe there is more to it that you aren't sharing with us. What an impeccable modesty.
Illusion of combine high and low - as you said(can any human decipher what he meant to say). Would really be honored if you further elaborate that. |

like ascension said.. delays? maybe sending the track to a second track or duplicating it and using a vocoder or delay to give a different tone.. even though its the same pattern... possibly even side chain gate/compress/filter to an external midi source.. or even the original percussion pattern.. and the use the eq and filter techniques mentioned?
I'm just guessing though. |

putting a crazy pingpong delay (ohmboys...) on percussive elements can be fun! dont forget to bounce, and work in audio... it gives much more possibilities, is more inspiring and psychedelic of course

Use lots and lots of layers, all doing different things in different frequency ranges. You have to make sure you EQ them all properly so they don't all try and take over, and that you notice the difference when you turn one of them off.
I helped Chris Organic out with a Saffi Project remix he was doing, and there were literally 10 layers of percussion loops. We took this idea and used it on the first Voice of Cod album - it worked really well.
10 layers of percussion loops (self-programmed or sampled loops; up to you) - try it out.
