Ant TC1 is proud to present Transit 2 - a carefully selected palette of pure, technical drum & bass from producers across the globe and the latest various artists’ compilation from Dispatch Recordings.

Two years have flown by since the seminal Transit One album was dropped to critical acclaim and supported so universally across the board. The up & comers from our last project have since blossomed into today’s key tastemakers, paving the way for a wave of fresh new talent.

With the “Transit” series Dispatch Recordings strives to showcase the most exciting new talents alongside the established label favourites. When faced with such a vast body of music from both previous contributors and newcomers to the label, the project quickly began to take shape and we knew the time was right to bring to you this second chapter.

With a variety of tracks stretching right across the spectrum, the album reaches into a number of alternative vibes and tempos without compromising on the Dispatch quality. From the cool and callous “Apparatus” of Mindmapper & Fre4knc to the colossal beast that is Survival & Silent Witness’ “Paddy”, Transit 2 provides an assortment of technical brilliance over just one album.

Other tracks dip in and out of the dance-floor mould to provide a real contrast and depth to the project, making this complete package such an essential catalogue of future beats. Gamma’s deep & abstract “If U Go Away” takes the album down to a more experimental level and the heavily techno influenced, 4x4 stabs of Sleeper’s “Trojan” switches up the styles.

We are fortunate to have so much great talent presenting incredible productions on such a frequent basis. We're proud to offer a complete picture of the label’s current sound with this album.

Thanks for listening.

Safire

The Homeland EP

Travelling to our extended network at the other side of the globe, we welcome Australian producer Safire and his very first Dispatch Recordings EP. Emerging as one of the dark horses of the label of late, his debut EP consists of five superb tracks that combine raw elements with sophisticated production, to bring some of his best music to date.

Leading on from “Power Of Thought”, Safire’s contribution the Transit 2 compilation, he heads straight for the jugular with title track “Homeland”. Deviating into 140 bpm territory on his second solo effort of the EP, “Face Your Fear”, Safire proves he can master all tempos. Having previously joined forces with other artists for Dispatch in the past, Safire completes this EP by collaborating with yet more high profile artists. Working with DLR on the ruthless “Hurdles”, adding infectious vocals in “Timeline” with Cern, and sending out warning signals with Minor Rain for “Transit”.

Each track is brought together with meticulously assembled drums, an ultra-high level of technical quality - you can expect to see a lot more from Safire in the future.

About Systems:

Ant TC1 along with Hidden Agenda founded Dispatch Recordings back in 2001, Ant originally helped out with the management side of the label before finding his feet within the realms of production; which was a natural progression for him having DJ’d on pirate radio and in clubs from the age of 14 (since 1992).  His first release alongside frequent production partner Stress Level appeared on Dispatch after almost 3 years of hard work getting their collective sound where they felt it needed to be before even thinking about turning on a DAT recorder.  After their first release hit the stores they quickly picked up a wealth of DJ support across their early material and went on to release for a who’s who list of established Drum & Bass record labels including the likes of Renegade, CIA, Advanced, Critical Records Integral, Liquid V, Commercial Suicide, Good Looking Records, Bingo Beats and Samurai Music.

By demand remix work started to feature heavily within their output and the duo went on to remix for the likes of Hidden Agenda, Chris SU, Artificial Intelligence, Kabuki, Total Science, Optical & Ryme Time (Jagged Edge), Atlantic Connection, Tactile & DJ Marky.  Branching out and working with other producers such as Survival, DLR & Philth has only furthered experience Ant’s skills at the controls over the years, Ant has also released his own solo material more recently on top of remixing for the likes of Lomax on Integral Records.  In 2014 Ant realised a lifetime ambition, securing his first ever release for the legendary Metalheadz label “Hungry For Atmosphere” alongside Mako, DLR & Villem with further releases for the label and counting going into 2024.

Ant’s production output has featured on a mass of compilations and mix CD’s compiled by the likes of Shy FX, LTJ Bukem, Total Science, AI, Spectrasoul, Klute and Brian G.  Additionally his work has featured very heavily within the radio shows of Friction, Grooverider, Fabio, Goldie, Bailey & Rene LaVice on their respective BBC Radio 1 slots over the years as well as BBC 1Xtra where Ant once hosted his own one-off 4 hour show, he has since additionally made 2 guest DJ appearances for DJ Friction on his Radio 1 show.  His DJ’ing work has seen him play all over the globe from Adelaide to Los Angeles, from Hong Kong to Sarajevo, Vancouver to Bangkok and last but by no means least regularly UK and EU wide. Additionally for the most part of the decade beyond 2010 Ant also worked as the Artist Manager for both Outlook and Dimensions Festival in Croatia, leading up the booking process, budgets and travel aspects for the festival.

Fast forward through to 2024; Ant is now responsible for the lead label management roles of both Metalheadz & Dispatch Recordings and is based in Thailand, with a purpose built studio room recently finished the plan (alongside managing a mass of planned record label releases) is to get back to focusing on writing music more consistently than he ever has previously.
