What qualities do you mean?

Sounds like a fairly normal kickdrum?

Not sure how to describe it..BUt My kicks do not sound like this...maybe its more present at certain frequencies...Its a bit chunky...Not sure if its the compression.....
I'll try to upload some of my kicks so You guys can tell me how to get it to sound more like the kick in this track..

Thanks :)

It could be a sample straight from a pack but don't get too hung up on your kicks, it's each to there own. That kick sounded horrid to me. Although I can spend days changing kicks myself. Still not been happy with the result.

What I do with my kicks is, open an eq, get a tight notch, set to full kill, sweep through the frequencies until I hit that point, then fine movements around that point, possibly releasing the full kill to suit.

I also mono my kicks with a lil roll off right at the bottom. Not forgetting some compression to get those transients up. All to compensate for the final mega squish on the master bus.
