Ok, not bombs.. but on the album there are some places where it feels like the bass "chokes" the rest of the mix in a way. Very cool effect. I heard someone mention that this had a name on another forum once, like "sub drops" or something like that, made by a compressor.

Can anyone shed some light on this? I`m interested in how this was done.

Check in this thread. Main ingredients are loud bassy samples. Choking bit is as far as I understand side effect of using such BIG sounds with excessive compression (with small headroom in the mix some sounds will overpower the others). Here's the thread about the phenomenon, check posts of user Paroxyst for technical details.
