VINYL ONLY !!! & 100% Confirmed shipping on Monday 20th October !!!  the 300 ltd edition Vinyl's are here & all set to Ship out from our new distributor Unearthed Sounds in Bournemouth.

After two decades of  'Digital sound' destruction in every UK dance, and releases on his own mighty Function label and various other seminal  labels including  Reinforced and  Metal Headz .  1994-2014  and counting Digitals champion career in D&B is retrospectively flawless . 

Following the huge success of the worlds first modern day VINYL ONLY D&B label’s debut  releases : Horrific 001 dRamatic & dbAudio, Horrific 002 EgoScene (Response). I am very  proud to introduce Horrific 003,  by one of my  longest standing D&B hero’s DIGITAL. He first stamped his place in  the D&B history hall of fame with  his legendary 1995 anthem ‘Space Funk’  on Timeless Recordings rinsed out by Fabio & Grooverider,  to this day 19 years on it still goes off!. 

 aa. ‘GLUE TUNE’ 

Having been after this tune since hearing it on dub plate back in 2004!. I thought this gem had got away into the Digital dub plate archives never to be released. But after a recent tip off from the man Clive Ingredients, Horrific tracked this one down and here we are. Starting with some ‘Natural Mystic’ vibez, your soon hit with an energetic bongo fury riddim on the intro, then boom, smash and grab in drops the most ferocious amen, dark side stabs and smashing amen work out that only ‘King Digital’ can provide. Now fully in the dub war rave zone . Guaranteed to knock the dance floor  over side  ways.

Release Date	- 20/04/2015

As an artist we have held in high regard at Dispatch since the label’s inception, it comes with great pleasure to introduce our first release with the legendary Digital. 

Shaping his unique sound for over 15 years (still heavily cited by a core of forward thinking producers today), Digital is continuously developing his original strain of dub influenced d&b and this release demonstrates a manipulation of his roots into a modern twist. Ingrained with an authentic old skool feel that has remaining entrenched in the Digital sound we love today, each track on this release has been constructed and layered carefully, to ensure all the initial emotions and vibe are firmly translated and expressed in the final product. 

Despite their distinct differences, this soul and attention to detail remains consistent throughout. Starting with the distinctive strings in ‘Red Alert’, the track maintains a very haunting, yet emotive feel, all balanced atop a skipping drum pattern of dub-echoed snares and a subtle bassline. 

Following on from the lead track, ’A Message’ continues the dark and brooding themes, as the master of half time delivers a thick spread of heavyweight pressure. Marching into the shadowy depths with intrepid force, the villain prevails in this scene, as the low ends take full control beyond the drop.

Concluding on a retrospective tip is ‘Maintain’, written alongside Audio Habitat and Mad Vibes. Directed by majestic piano chords, it’s a fantastic blend of percussive and musical elements, equipped with smartly chopped amen cuts and abridged bass throbs teasing throughout, all coinciding to create a true uplifting rave style stepper.

I Will For Love - Rudimental (Roni Size Remix)

A purveyor of the spectrum’s deeper end, re-known for an ever quality output, we’re pleased to present the 2nd album from Zero T, entitled ‘Golden Section’, coming on Dispatch this Autumn.

Taking its name from a classical mathematic formula (illustrated on the album’s artwork), Zero T explores the science and maths behind beauty; the factors and stimuli that govern our perception of balance, harmony and beauty in nature, art, architecture and composition.

Exploring intrinsic reactions to music and how discerning elements can balance against one another, Zero T ventures into the senses across the album; from the mesmerising nostalgia of ‘Macushla’ and dubbed out roller ‘Everything Must Change’, to dancefloor poised punishers ‘Good For Nothing’ and ‘Wolf Tone’.

Comprised of 13 original tracks, plus two additional bonus tracks, the digital album predominantly features solo jaunts, such as the blissful title track ‘Golden Section‘ and opened by the elegantly arranged ‘Late Nite Movies’, however a few special guests also join the picture, for some more technically focused collaborations.

Linking up with Fierce on the unrelenting, yet, mischievously sampled ‘Cross It’, Zero T also joins fellow Dubliner Beta 2, with two industrial workouts, including harsh stomper, yet groove driven ‘Cairo’.

Utilizing the technical apparatus to investigate a long adopted term, Zero T carefully maps out the indices to deliver a classic, all-encompassing long player that evokes the senses in numerous ways.

Dispatch Dubplate returns in October, with two of the most infamous unreleased dubs of the past decade; the Alix Perez & Zero T collaborations ‘The Ladders’ & ‘Enemy Of Reason’ will finally be made available digitally and on a limited vinyl press. 

A ‘dubplate’ in its purest form, becoming something of an urban legend in DnB, the tracks were kept ultra-exclusive for years; sent only to a select few DJs, only accessible to those attending the clubs, fueling the excitement that made up the dubplate culture we celebrate within this series.

Truly defying the test of time, we present two tracks that still provoke just as strong a reaction on the dancefloor almost a decade on, and for some, spurs nostalgic memories of ‘The End’ in London. 

With 400 hand stamped, signed and numbered heavyweight vinyl copies available, there is a very limited press and much like previous Dispatch Dubplates, this will never be re-pressed.

Outlook is proud to feature the album title track from one of our long time family members DLR, released on one of our favourites Dispatch Recordings.

‘Dreamland’ is the 2nd solo album from Bristol based DLR.
 
Continuing where his 2015 debut ‘Seeing Sounds’ left off, ‘Dreamland’ is an album concept that reflects on the world today; encouraging people to challenge the barriers and comfort zones we blissfully exist within; it’s an inadequate reality we are sleepwalking into.
 
The title track 'Dreamland' most notably features vocals from Gusto; the lyrics of which heavily influenced the whole album project giving you a taste of exactly the kind of concept / message DLR wanted to convey.
 
With various references to time, space and dreaming throughout the project, DLR searches for a deeper meaning within the music, taking a stand against the music which has lost its connection to the roots of this culture.

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.
