To me the examples you posted are pretty different sounds. The first one is more jungle/ragga/riddim, my fav 
compilation on that tip is http://www.discogs.com/Various-Toasted-Massive-Ragga-Jungle/master/48556 especially that 
opener! it still hits hard as hell today.

The second is more ily the horrendously-named "intelligent dn'b" style, of which LTJ Bukem is probably the biggest name 
(and therefore largely to blame for how awful/cheezy it went, roit?) And there's tons of that stuff on Good Looking 
records, some Ninja Tune, etc but for me "Logical Progression" was the entry point 
http://www.discogs.com/LTJ-Bukem-Logical-Progression/master/32062

SOoooO yeah. Wishing I hadn't sold all this shit back in the day.
