Kuantum - Lost & Found OUT NOW !!! (IMLTD040)

Revolution Recordings return for the New Year with two brand new tracks from Ukrainian producers Sunchase and Nickbee.  First up on the release is the epic ‘Life Simulator’.  Ghostly atmospherics and resonating Sitars alongside some tribal percussion establishes the tone.  When this one drops, it drops hard.  Deep, low end sub bass combined with twisted, raw sounding leads are the key characteristics here, optimized for a unique journey into the deeper side of Drum and Bass. 
Next up we have ‘Full HD’ with its dreamy laidback introduction and spine tingling vocals all build to a crescendo of hard hitting Kicks, Snares and warped Bass lines.  It is clear to see Sunchase and Nickbee are not only extremely gifted producers but both are at the cutting edge of modern day Electronic music.  Seriously head nodding stuff!  A must for anyone who likes their D&B that little bit deeper.

While The Upbeats may explain their choice of album title with the humble statement “We’re not super tech geeks, we’ve always felt our approach to production is quite simple.” Anyone who knows anything about this duo’s music can tell you that the end results sound far from primitive. The cheeky-grinned New Zealanders have filled dance floors and iPod playlists around the world with their unique take on drum & bass for nearly a decade, yet their music is sounding fresher than ever; as their impressive new album is about to prove.

‘Primitive Technique’ is an album that caters to many but compromises for no one, and with techniques that may be primitive The Upbeats have crafted an album that sounds undeniably modern.

The flipside see’s Billain break the mould once again. Incorporating elements of Disco and Boogie, Billain combines ravey stabs and complex percussion with his signature style and the results are astounding. Featuring sharp synths, roaring Billain bass and a relentless groove, Boogie is the perfect counterpart to the epic sounds of Blockfield.

Press Release:
With Winter now behind us, the mighty Division stable ready a genre-spanning, decibel-bothering 6 tracker from Netherlands based Posij, that’s set to make incisive moves on both club and festival floors alike this Spring.
 
The young Dutch producer is a relative newcomer to the scene but after just one release on Noisia’s imprint, he can already count the likes of Flying Lotus, Pendulum, Chase & Status and Skrillex amongst his influential, tastemaker fans.
 
Fresh to the stage he may be, but sonically and stylistically his sound reflects a skill and aptitude well beyond his years. Drawing influences from raw Hip and Glitch Hop, trap, D&B and today’s frenetic bass culture – you’ll find that Posij employs a variety of aural textures and approaches to help create his expansive, painstakingly fresh sounding music.
 
Leading the pack and demonstrating this unique cocktail from the word go on his new EP, are title track ’28 Hz Scream’ and Borrel collaboration ‘CV Promode’; both of which snarl their way through cocksure drum breaks amidst their own unique, bit-crushed whirlwinds. These opening cuts then tee us up perfectly for the desolate, dubby soundscapes of ‘Duikbril’ - whose sparse muffled swells permeate the ominous synth washes that loom above. ‘Laserfilth’ wears it’s heart firmly on its sleeve, delivering a powerful and uncompromising, electro-shocked stomp, while ‘Close Call’ is a gritty and rifling D‘n’B / Drumstep hybrid with schizophrenic bite. Ultimately ‘Trident’ unleashes a blaze of course funk to wrap up what is an EP of organic-meets-electronic bass music of the highest order and the second surefooted step in what’s shaping up to be an exciting career for the Groningen resident.

Squidla started producing at the young age of 14 and quickly established himself in the Dubstep scene after his debut release with Noctem Audio which broke through the Beatport Top 100 Dubstep, Drum&Bass, and Electro-House charts.  His mind bending rich melodic style is perfectly balanced with dense crushing bass lines that will rip apart any dance floor!  Squidla's debut Heavy Artillery EP is a prime example of his diverse musical gift and this is just the beginning!  Superb remix support from the legendary We Bang and beat scientist Systek launch this EP into overdrive!

DIS065 See’s the hugely talented Hybris return with the Gravitron EP

The EP kicks off with title track "Gravitron", a track that provides a pure stone cold slab of rolling, stripped out tech which is perfectly underpinned with a huge helping of low end frequency for a perfect measure of dancefloor devastation.

“Understand Now” follows up by keeps things firmly rolling whilst increasing the movement levels with a heavy injection of bass line groove which provides a perfect backdrop for the haunting echoed out Vox and interweaving pads.

“Losing it” then switches up the whole EP and brings some thunder! The intro builds up a swarming crescendo of eager anticipation, culminating into a Titan drop that sees the track powerhouse into near Neuro territory, a guaranteed floor filler and almost certain to get people doing just as the title suggests.

And finally… Finishing off for good measure “Uproot” sees Hybris head into the realm of the unknown with a huge slice of futurism, a juxtaposition of sonic assault that charges through time and space, launching a full scale sensory assault in the process, the perfect compliment to close a very accomplished selection of top level production.

In usual generous Dispatch fashion and to complete the digital package we are including the exclusive “Head to Toe” seeing Hybris enter the ever popular 140 territory to deadly effect providing the last piece of the jigsaw to yet another highly accomplished Dispatch release.

Strong support across the scene so far from the likes of: Noisia, Goldie, Calyx & Teebee, Hype (on KissFM), Phace, Doc Scott, Survival & Silent Witness, Kasra, DLR, Ant TC1, Rido, Octane, Doc Scott, Cern, Artificial Intelligence, Xtrah, Safire, Amoss, Optiv, BMT, DJ Madd, The Upbeats, Total Science, EBK, Foreign Concept, Basher, Vicious Circle, Hydro, BTK, Mikal, Klute, Script, Mikal, Flight, Dabs.

Dispatch Ltd’s first outing of 2013 sees an outstanding trans global release which amalgamates a true melting pot of multinational minds by bringing together a full collaborative effort by DBRUK, Belgium’s Mtwn & New Zealand’s Cern alongside Verb.

DISLTD008 is a pure showcase of cutting edge Drum and Bass Music that brings together the formidable combined efforts of some of the scenes finest rising stars, once again all delivered with that unmistakable level of quality that now synonymous with Dispatch Ltd.

The A side “Degeneration” clearly nods back to some the finest points in Drum and Bass heritage with a diamond cut blend of splashy rides, hoovering low tones and crashing amens which all blend together in perfect measure to bring that “hell caving’ vibe that’s absolutely tailor made for those later, lights down dancefloor moments, an outing of Drum and Bass Music at its rawest and hardest edge, Just as we feel it absolutely should be sometimes!

The Flip, “Shrapnel” issues an unmistakable hollowed out Square wave workout which violently twists and turns through the sub frequencies, targeted at full aim towards the kind of SPL levels that penetrate straight through at chest level. “Shrapnel” is certainly the kind of stand out tune that you’ll remember the day after the night before as DBRUK and Mtwn again deliver with the highest level of production standard to deliver a very very healthy measure of creatively crafted originality.

Support from the likes of: Ant TC1, Survival, Digital, DJ Hype, Randall, Octane, Phace, Calyx & Teebee, Total Science, Need For Mirrors, Mikal, Spinline, Gerra & Stone, DLR, Doc Scott, Chris SU, Nymfo, Basher, EBK, Vicious Circle, Dabs, Script & Hydro.

CORE001A - Chris Octane - Synthetics [CO Recordings]

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.
