    ^^^ I think you're referring to "side chaining". Dudes like Flying Lotus would do it a lot, but not necessarily with kicks and bass. They would drop the whole track down when the kick hit.

    As far as your kick and bass sounding good (assuming both are synthesized), I like to tune my kick and bass a perfect fifth apart from one and other. It's like a power chord.

    • I thought he may mean side chaining also below but not sure he is, we need an example.fadein11
