hmm those tracks dont seem to have much in the way of riffs to me as they dont 
seem big on short and repetitive catchy melodic bits. they're lean a bit more 
to the deep, meandering noodle-y side, in a good way. but maybe "riff" has a 
certain connotation in my head...to me a riff has got a certain kinda groove to 
it, beyond just being a short repetitive melodic bit...

for riffs i would go with juan, eddie fowlkes, mk, and orlando voorn...

juan - i-94, game one, the chase
eddie - the truth, groovin, cbr
mk - nightcrawlers remix, i never knew love remix
orlando - dance, moments in measures

and honorable mention to ron cook - ffwd

this happens to be my absolute favorite stuff too. 

actually according to wikipedia there is no solid definition of what a riff 
is...
