Just some general "how do you make this sound" noob questions

Hey guys so I’m still in the process of learning the in’s-and-out’s of sound engineering, and I find the easyiest way to do this is to re-create sounds from my favorite tracks. I’m having problems with some.

Any help would be appreciated! And please don’t bash on me for requesting so many. I’ve tried really hard but still no success so if you could even help with one it’d be amazing.
