Chewkhd,
Aside from aspects of clarinet performance, something I've found helpful in having a darker and "thicker" (as you describe) clarinet sound is using a Kaspar-style mouthpiece and reeds with a thick-cut profile (ie, more "wood" in the heart). As icing on the cake, I'd also suggest seeing what a Vandoren Klassik string ligature does for you. However, as we know, equipment takes us only so far and the rest is up to us.
Good luck!
Roger
