Parallel compression! Mix your drums and instruments like a pro! Why it makes mixing easier and more precise! (Yeah I'm posting House of Kush again!)

This is one of those techniques that can really push you over from intermediate to pro. You need a good grasp on compression: what it does to your instruments and how it affects their texture. Parallel compression is simple, yet subtlety is what makes it work, you need good ears for compression for this to work in your favor....
