hello
i would definitely recommend HRVATSKI if you are into the sqpshr stuff. i
think that hrvatski's 'ousieaux 92-98' ( not sure about the years) is a
jungle/dnb masterpiece.. his other stuff is great too, but that's the most
'jungly' of all his stuff i think. not to mention his remix of kid606's
'catstep/my kitten' on kid 606's KID606 and FRIENDS VOL. 1 - 'we are all
winners' .. in my opinion, that's one of the finest jungle pieces ever
composed .. many will agree i'm sure
also check out plug ('drum n bass for papa') aka wagon christ aka luke
vibert ..
alec empire's 'destroyer' is good too .. really dirty dnb/jungle ..
panacea 'twisted designz' is another fav of mine .. this is the only album
i have of his, but i'm sure his other releases are good too
animals on wheels 'designs and mistakes' (more melodic drill n bass type
shit)
animals on wheels 'cooked' (ep)
mu-ziq 'lunatic harness' and pretty much everything else by mu-ziq aka mike
paradinas aka kid spatula (correct me if i'm mistaken)
i mean there is a whole world of great stuff in the vein of sqrpshr.. just
gotta look around for it .. i'm sure there are lots of folks on this list
that can provide further recommendations .. i would just start making a
list of stuff to check out ..
hope this helps!
