The remixes on 'Single of the Week' are all by Clear artists, so I'd
suggest checking them out. There's a compilation from a couple of years
back now called 'It All Becomes...'.

Also, maybe try:

Carerra 
Jedi Knights
Freddy Fresh

I think Carerra are really fantastic. I still can't get enough of their
album 'Sluts'n'Strings and 909s', which is on Cheap Records. Really fat
production, and wicked programming. Nice and electic too.
