'The Feels EP' began life in April 2019 with the track 'Over It',  kicking off Kolectiv's return to Dispatch. The track marks a moment in their production where they were able to combine musicality and tech funk in a way they had always imagined. 

Filled with a new drive and artistic focus the duo continued this energy with a session alongside HLZ in his London studio in the same year. This gave birth to 'Iron Tech' - on a beautiful summer's day, true to dnb form, they wrote a typically dark techy number. 

Further inspired by the session at HLZ’s, Kolectiv went back to their studio in the following weeks and started writing more music. Another collaborative session with Wreckless saw them smash out the most aggressive track on the EP, 'Stop & Search.'  They knew they had created the magic they wanted, when the track was played at a sit-down rave in Brighton and Threshold jumped out of his seat and ran to reload the track mid mix. 

'The Feels' was born out of a 130bpm project, increased in tempo and with a new moodier vibe the track took on a new life. With the addition of an emotional lead riff and atmospheric pads, 'The Feels' found its name due to the emotion the intro evokes.

A very welcome return to the label from the Kolectiv duo, this EP demonstrates their remarkable talent.

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.

The label was organized by two friends Jan Slavov (Dj UNO) and Sergey Ptitsin (  ZARINE, S13, NIR300, PTITZYN ...) on the basis of the HAVANA CLUB institution in St. Petersburg. Life has been swept away by comrades around the world, but the idea of ​​the label is still alive and is being realized again. The label, as from the very beginning, is engaged in interesting projects  preferring electronic music. ZARINE was one of those who stood at the source in the 90s  Drum and bass in the culture, and today promotes broken rhythms in massy.Sozdav recording studio, has been mixed and the release material of other musicians of different napravleniy.Currently the label is looking for sponsorship to enter the market as the capable UNIT.
