Cuong Vu's It's Mostly Residual is more in the rock-influenced jazz camp than Supersilent. "Expressions of a Neurotic Impulse" is my favorite track on here and uses the sampling and looping of instruments you talked about. It starts off normally enough (except that the trumpet is doing the type of staccato riffing a guitar would, and the guitar is doing these extended blasts of sliding notes like a trumpet would) but soon enough everything's spinning out of control. A highly recommended CD for anyone that enjoys off-the-beaten-path non-free jazz.

One big step closer to mainstream jazz is the brand new Moonshine by Dave Douglas and Keystone. All About Jazz does a good job in their review of highlighting the importance of post-production on this one. It's definitely more out there than his Grammy nominees, but it's still not as avant as most of the things I listen too. I'm not sure if it's actually available on CDs or not yet, but you can purchase it digitally from his website.

Check out EAQuartett, they are similar to Supersilent, it is a free-jazz band with electronic elements. Electroacousticquartett (2007) was one of my last year's favorite album.
There is also Spring Heel Jack, this band started as a drum n' bass group and transformed into another free-jazz band with electronic elements. Their best albums in my opinion are Masses (2001) and Amassed (2002).

Now... if you are looking for something more like 7.4 of Supersilent which is more electronic based than jazz, then I would recommend Autechre's Confield (2001), which is their most experimental work to date.
