I'd say that you need a deeper sonic palette... Something like:

http://www.doepfer.de/A137.htm

That's a pretty nice module to get some way serious harmonics happening.

The A-115 is nice, it'll help with the sub-bass stuff, but the net result 
is a square wave which isn't all that exciting harmonically. To get the 
A-115 running, you split a signal out of your VCO and drive it directly. 
Or, you can use a SAW or SQUARE output if it's not alrady busy in a patch.
