layer the hi-hats.. clean ones/dirty ones/dephased ones.

there's been loads of stuff mentioned.. do a search for techno in this forum.

I have noticed that if i go to add a second hi hat loop atop another, i get real bad phasing. How do you prevent this? Do i need to high pass filter the second loop till i no longer hear the phasing. Haven't had time to try this.

You really can't prevent the slight phasing if you have two copies of the same loop so you have more or less 2 options:

1) Don't use loops. Writing your own hihat patterns will give better and more original results. And no phasing problems.

or

2) Pitch the loops up and down a bit to get some proper detuning and pan them left and right. That way you can use the phasing to your advantage, making a fatter, wider sound.

And the reversing sound is often just done in digital multitracking...

(reverse the waveform of a quarter note)

The kicks, I've not mastered, though. I always get (electronic) "c-thmp" when I need "KKCK - " (slammy-reverb).

a delay unit can help with the hihats also.. and don't be afraid to use white noise as an open sound, drop it low in the mix and if using a sampler dephase it so it's panned left&right at the same time.. layer that with the hat's patterns and the hifreq start to clash.. then the real rythmical patterns will emerge.

basically layering hats etc.
