If you want to cut the spacy, ambient or "wide\large" feel of your (btw, very nice) track, try reducing the release\sustain of some of the instruments's envelope. Cut the reverb a bit. Center your mix. If you want to give it a "train" or "carrying" or "forward" (gosh music is hard to put into words...) effect, go for a shaker (like someone above said) or a steady hi-hat that will ground your persussion side. I guess the key word here is grounding and that can be done by a centered, steady, repeated sound.

Keep in mind though, your tune already sounds nice the way it is. Overworking it sometimes leads to overlistening it and losing its overall sound, thus focusing too much on the details.

Hope i helped.
