I have 9 different Doepfer filters and I do quite a lot something
which could be characterized industrial. I'd recommend an A-124 WASP
filter for you. For bass sounds I use frequently an A-122. Haven't
tested it yet, but the new A-106-6 looks very promising.

In Your case my advice is that do NOT buy A-120.

All this is of course a matter of individual taste.
