well, you would probably like the more recent jega EPs, it's not
drill'n'bass like a lot of people tend to say.  Some stuff on the LP too
(Spectrum).  Other than that, explore the more recent stuff from
Panacea, Ed Rush, Nico, Trace, Technical Itch, etc.  You will fall into
techstep, but then again, this must be mostly what you're looking for...
