FYI, the reason why you've had no answers is because nobody knows what sound you're referring to. All of the sounds in those songs are possible i Caustic.

Are you familiar with using a compressor, side-chaining and "ducking"?

Sure, needed to ask that

Sure, needed to ask that first so I would have some idea of where to start. I'll throw something together and attach ot to this post later unless someone beats me to it.

Here's a basic example, will post something more thorough later. For now simply play this pattern and while doing so go to the Effects section and turn the Compressor on/off (bypass) by clicking the red square. When the Compressor is off the kick drum does not affect the Bassline. When it's on, every time the kick plays it lowers the volume of the Bassline, this is often referred to as "ducking".

That type of music is created

That type of music is created by chopping and mangling someone elses's song, usually some old disco tunes. I also hear some 909 samples, some percussion samples, a lot of automated filtering, high pass filtered white noise, some vocal samples, etc.

I dont think there was any synth used here.
