Thought so, since it's on Ammunition And Blackdown Present: The Roots Of Dubstep.
Now, suggestions.

Everything El-B, Zed Bias, Steve Gurley and Wookie have ever laid their hands on.
Also check the old (now defunct) Ammunition affiliated label ShelfLife for more of the darker side of 2-step.
Beyond that there's tons of good tunes scattered around by various artists. This genre was really popular in the early 00's and a bunch of it charted, so be aware that you'll run into a lot of poppy/vocal stuff.
Some of my other favs that I can think of right now...
Groove Connektion - Club Lonely (Dem 2 Don't Cry Dub) (really quite similar to Hotboys)
Vincent J Alvis ft. Freddy Funkston - Body Killin' (M-Dubs Breakbeat Funk Vocal Mix) (menacing, sexy 2-step, and the vocals work perfectly)
Horsepower Productions - Electro Bass (HP is always genious)
Basically be on the lookout for tracks marked (Dub Mix) if you want as much bass and as little vocals as possible.

Quality reply as usual when it comes to dubstep and garage, I see.
Thanks, I'll check those out. Already got HP's album, btw. It's waiting to be listened.

A couple more...
Antonio - Hyperfunk
Master Stepz - Melody
Dem 2 - Destiny (Original Mix) (NOT the vocal mix)
Soulstice - Fall Into You (Landslide Mix)
I'll recommend more specific tunes by El-B and all them lot later.
