Default Advice on first drumset

I'm looking to buy my first drum set I would like to spend around 800 CAD. I don't know much about drumsets. I like post punk revival style disco ish drums and am a big fan of Greg Saunier from Deerhoof. I also really like hardcore Japanese punk drums like this: (I moved the link to the bottom) The snare sounds almost muffled or something I can't tell if that has something to do with the recording or the drumset they are using. I also really love Mel Taylor of the Ventures, I like surf rock a lot too.

If anyone could lead me in the right direction I'de appreciate. It is hard to find many resources on drumsets as a beginner. Specific things I want to know is:

How many of these sounds I listed can I get from one drumset, is most of the sound I am hearing due to playstyle (how much variation is there between drumsets), and what do I get with spending more on a drumset.
