Well, the original tune is all XL-7, you can hear that version up at Emu's 
Audiophile site:

Production Notes: 
The first order of business was adding a new drum loop to the mix, using 
one I 'found' and ReCycled, then resequenced in Reason.  This was rewired 
into Cubase and underwent extensive programming at that point in order to 
add LOTS of fills and drum variations.  I also layered new kicks and 
snares over the original drum tracks, to make them harder and more full 
sounding.  The original bassline and about 4 other tracks were scrapped 
completely too, as I felt something darker was needed to compliment the 
harder drums.  The new Bassline is from Reaktor's Junatik Ensemble, 
heavily effected and distorted.  The wierd noises are all from Reaktor 
too, I forget the ensemble, but it was originally a sample of someone 
saying "Hallucinitory" and "MDMA" :)  The 303 line was from (you guessed 
it) ReBirth.  No XL-7 added to the new version, only beause it's being 
dedicated to another concept project, more on that one when it's done :)

How long did it take me?  Hard to say as it's been one of those projects 
that got worked on inbetween more pressing stuff.  I'd say about two weeks 
would be realistic, give or take a few days.  I was pretty focused while 
working on this tune, and I tend to work fast in that mode ;)

That's definitely your best so far (well IMO anyway!).  Maybe it's just 
the sort of music I like, but it really smacks with attitude, and the 
pecussion track is sooo detailed and well programmed.  How much of that 
was done on the XL7? How long did it take you?
