I need guidance!

I come to you from a background of house and techno. My techno tastes have gotten pretty minimal, but I'm also a huge jamaican dub fiend. Tubby, Pablo, Scratch being a solid foundation for my love.

Last year the 2nd Burial album came my way, and I still can't get enough of it. I see loads of parrallels with techno, and of course UK Garage from back in the mid 90s, which, living in south london at the time, i loved.

To confuse the issue, I never really dug jungle. Maybe I missed the point back then, and was too busy smiling in house oriented clubs

My longwinded question is: given an understanding of my tastes here, open up some avenues for me would you?

Cheers!

also this mix by J Rolla is probably my favourite of this year, very techno influenced at the beginning (although actually gets quite jungle/breakstepy afterwards so you might not like that bit)

if you asking about artists and labels, go straight for the label skull disco, artists include perverlist, shackleton and appleblim very techno minimal feal to a lot of there tunes. Also on the more dubby side of things reach for 6blocc and rogue state. Also go check out all of mala's bits he does pretty much everything, but a lot of dub influences in his music and also some more minimal, especially reach for 'blue notez' great track. Sorry ill just finish, go seach for the label punch drunk very expermental label along your lines. Also reach for boxcutter very diverse artist verging on techno at points.

Corpsey & Steppa - sincere thanks, I'm all over it.
