Replacing Acoustic drums to Hip hop drums

I'm tracking an ep currently that is a trip-hop, rock, jazz group.
Spent allot of time at the mic and drums getting the sound as close as possible to what we want, now it's time to emphasize that.

The drums sound i'm after for most of the songs is along the lines of the drums you can hear in these two songs.

Drum Replacement Software?

This may sound totally stupid/noob, but anyone here used drum replacer software?

Typically what I do is play 'real' drums to get the parts I want to play and then 're-record' them using MIDI triggers and sample libs. This is mainly because I don't have all the kit one needs to properly close mic a set... plus the set isn't that great.
