Hi,

I want to ask how, in general, do you get that punch in your mix? Cheers!

Use Cubase or another punchy sounding DAW.

...but as a serious answer a decent mix carving out space for each instrument and multiband compression!

Paste a picture of RIHANNA on your screen and call CHRIS BROWN over.

Talking about punchy kicks? Sidechain compression on your kick drums. Lots of topics on it on the forum and outside websites, I'd try a google search.
