you should check some old bob sinclar albums most of them are beat oriented...
or just try some house records, there is too a "tribal house" rare genre that should give you emotions man.
Justice are said "successor" of datf punk, you should try them...they are 2 guys like daff punk making high beats.

you might like bands like holy f**k and kelpe...and I would recommend Four Tet to anyone getting into electronica, he's different to the stuff you've described but his music is phenomenal.

cheers,

I second that four tet recommendation, also you should check out Jackson and his computer band who are on Warp records and if you like that then check out pretty much anything else on warp for some very interesting intelligent dance music.
