what you want is to layer your kicks, so use a few different ones at different frequencies, have one lower sub to mid based kick, then use a higher based kick, chop out the lower frequencies of this one so it sits on top of the lower kick.

then compress the two together

hmm sounds good, ill try that out for sure in a little bit, let you know how it turns out, haha. thanks for the reply I appreciate it.

there's an offbeat (gated?) reverb on those kickdrums as well.

put a reverb on your kickdrum and play with the predelay setting until it falls in between the kickdrums.

You could easily get this kick just by taking a 909 kick, eqing it right, compressing it and putting a bit of verb on it.

The reverb is what gives the kick the feeling of hugeness. The verb trail tricks you into thinking its the most monstrous kick in creation, the kick itself is just quite a punchy but ordinary sound.
