Yes, I know the feeling. Ive been spending few last days on figuring out Harvestman Hertz Donut and I really struggle on blending this into my workflow.
@sabana, probably the most common formula for radio hits from the early 80s to early 90s was this: Mini on bass, DX-7 on e-piano. Does that help?
Switch over to techno related genres and the 4 OP synths like DX-100, DX-27, DX-21 found frequent use for bouncy bass sounds.
Also, Brian Eno is a well known fan of FM and most of his music tends toward smooth sounds, not rough.

Gotcha. But with mid-harmonics? Do they still gel together. Or do you have to seperate them as bass and melody.
given the many many different sounds both, but fm in particular, can produce, there can be no general answer.
all comes down to the sounds you use.
both can be great for pads, drums, basses etc etc. different, but both can do it

The MFB Dominion Club goes so far as having one FM and two analogue oscillators. They sound wonderful together.
