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.

Hybris - Uproot - Dispatch Recordings 065D (CLIP) - OUT NOW

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.
