Looking for a recommendation - slow tempo, heavy bass

    I'm looking for some recommendations based on what I already like.

    My starting point is "Night" by Benga - in fact, most of the Benga Album "Diary of An Afro Warrior" is what I'm looking for.

    Slow tempo, heavy basslines, atmospheric - even a bit sinister, if that makes sense.

    From here I've moved on to Modeselektor, which is a little bit jaunty in parts (as are parts of DOAAW, it has to be said).

    I realise that not all of a particular artist's output will be like this, so perhaps a compilation or something similar might be what I'm looking for.

    I have a UKF Dubstep compilation, but I don't care for the House-like vocals on some of it, I've also got a 50 song Deep House compilation that I like some of. I want is slower and darker though, and even more minimal.

    Does it exist? To me, the song "Night" is perfection, it has it's crescendo and some lovely deep bass parts, accented with the higher notes to bring it together. It also has that sense of impending doom, which I really like, no matter how many times I listen to it, I still love it.

    If I've gotten any terms wrong, please, correct me. I don't study this stuff, but ever since I heard that song I've been looking for more stuff like it.
