recently it's stuff cut on the Dewali & Famine rhythms that have been rocking my world (Bounty Killer, Beenie Man, Cecile, Sizzla, Elephant Man, etc...). The Dewali cuts are probably close to what you're looking for. It's a danceable rhythm but really odd & rough sounding. If you don't want to chase down the 7"s, Greensleeves does a good job of compiling stuff cut on the same rhythms for good extended mix potential. www.jammyland.com is a good source for buying fresh new dancehall sounds.
