Buy a synth that only a few people use. Everybody use virtual analogs now. Especially Nordlead and Virus but that doesnt mean that you cant make original sounds with them. It just takes skill but some synth do sound very different because of new features.
Evolver can sound very different.
Hartmann neuron.
Monomachine.
Also Ensoniq esq-1. The filter sounds quite unique IMO. Very raw and dirty but otherwise its more or less a "normal" synth.
You could also go for a more advanced synth and make very complex sounds and that way sound different, but that takes lots of synth programming skills. You could also focus on fx to sculp your sound. Somtimes i use a VERY simple synth patch, like a saw wave through a lowpass filter, and run it through lots of fx to make a new sound. Great fun and great results.
