TRIPZ

DARK

Metalheadz rounds off an incredibly successful year with an EP from core label producer Mikal, who also brings some friends along for the ride.  

META013 is a project that shows the versatility of Mikal. His take on the Headz sound includes steam train steppers, halftime dancehall grooves and classic reinforced era jungle. The EP is an expansive project that includes collaborations with Break and Nymfo, from South Country UK across to Holland.

The dancehall and dub parts of Mikal’s armoury are strongly on display here - his contribution to the long lineage of dancehall influenced drum n bass is a confident- take no prisoners attitude,  typical Metalheadz.

The package is broken down as a four track vinyl EP, with an exclusive digital only fifth track. There is also an accompanying video for the lead track. 

The EP is five tracks worth of intent and is the tip of the iceberg for Mikal’s future in terms of sound and presence on the label and we keenly await his next outing.

Break & Mikal - Status Low

Mako, DLR & Villem provide us with a mix to compliment the release of META015 their recently released collaboration for Metalheadz.

T/L:

Sunchase - Nathnnenia (Mako redub) (Utopia Music)
Villem & McLeod - Thinking I'm yours (Warm Communications)
Hydro, Habstrakt, War & Mateba - The New Age (Utopia Music)
Mako, DLR, Villem & Ant TC1 - Hungry for Atmosphere (Metalheadz)
Break, Mako, Fields & Villem - Shadowlines (Utopia Music)
? - ?
Sunchase - 420 (Metalheadz)
? - ?
Mako ft Detail - Tell Me Something (Metalheadz)
Villem & Mcleod - Putting Down Roots (Warm Communications)
Mako ft Villem - We Could Help Each Other (Dispatch)
Mako, DLR & Fields - Old Soul (Utopia Music)
Mute & Mako - Rorschach (VIP) (dub)
DLR & Mako ft. Rider Shafiq - Seek Knowledge (outro edit)


META015 is  a beauty and the beast affair, fantastically executed in the great tradition of Metalheadz.
Kicking off with ‘Hungry For Atmosphere’ this stepper is a perfect set opener, heartfelt strings and keys give way to contorted mids and FXs, whilst the familiar vocal is processed into something altogether more sinister. The track clocks at just over 7 minutes and this says everything of the tracks ambitions, not pandering to anything but its own journey.
Next to step into the ring is ‘A Certain Flavour’ the opposite but yet perfectly paired track to go with the A side. Beginning with a very cinematic introduction it unravels into a growling bass led stepper with staccato drums before switching into a two-step drum work out, tailor made for dancefloors and DJs alike.

A release that we are very happy to kick 2014 off with, welcome to the new breed!

Mako, DLR & Villem mix for Metalheadz

Break presents Symmetry Sessions vol 1 ; a collection of high quality tracks from some of the top names in the scene.

One of only three people to ever remix a Break track ; the reigns have been effortlessly taken by Calibre for a relick of "They're Wrong". Being the man he is Calibre has blessed Symmetry with two versions of the remix so watch out for the alternate mix in the bonus tracks. Teaming up with DLR one of the scene's hottest technical producers, the mighty "New Design" was born at the end of last year, smashing clubs all over the festive season, a great follow on for fans of their last co-lab "Murmur".

Featuring NC17 & KC 's guaranteed club hurter "SlimeVille" - and a brand new Break track "Wondering Why" this is an essential E.P. to get into your bag for the start of the year. The dub style "Dem Babylon" rounds off the record with a different down tempo flavour from Break showing his dubwise musical skills. 

The A and AA are arriving as a 12" single, with the rest of the Digital E.P. available free to vinyl customers via a drop card download.

Strong support from Bailey, Calyx and Teebee, Friction, Spectrasoul, Bryan G, and many more.

GULLY SHIT FT. MC KOLAPSE

Mako has his first full outing for the Headz camp via METH XX. Meth XX is the fertile breeding ground for new Metalheadz artists that gives them a chance for to express themselves with the music they are making right now.
Enter Mako.

'Tell Me Something' was first aired by Goldie high up in the London skies for the Metalheadz X Red Bull London Eye event and instantly rewound. The track takes a creative drum pattern and edges forward with mutant bass and space age pads very much reminding of bygone Headz tracks, breaks and edits keep the track popping through its course.



Mako - Tell Me Something feat. Detail

With a smooth new remix of "Hell Rose" with McLeod (originally by Cern & Dabs) now out on the "Constant EP", we welcome Villem to the Dispatch label series, with a blissful summertime mix.

Next up from Villem, his own track receives the remix treatment. "The Formula" (written with DLR, Hydro & Mako) has been remixed by Break, for the very first "Dispatch Dubplate" release.

Pressed on 180g heavyweight vinyl and limited to 300 copies (no repress), be sure to keep an eye out. His next release is on Utopia, plus new material w/ Mako & DLR, BCee, Riya and Mcleod!

DIS083

Nymfo | A. Coming Through
Nymfo & Detail | B. Survivor
Nymfo | C. Tower of David [Digital Exclusive]

Release Date | 25/08/2014

When new music drops into the inbox from Nymfo for Dispatch, we know it’s not something to take lightly. Following on from his huge “Recollection / Desert Heat” single, this is no exception and the Flying Dutchman has pulled it out again for us.

“Coming Through” opens the proceedings, as a gem of the deeper elements. Crisp drums confidently flank, but the warm, inviting bassline steals the show. Gliding elegantly across the dancefloor, it lures you in with developing layers of persuasion.

Things get a bit more technical in “Survivor” as Nymfo teams up in collaboration with Detail, for a razor sharp percussive assault. Dramatically leading in with majestic pads, the techy drum work of the main body is separated by a deep cinematic breakdown.

Last, but by no means least, “Tower of David” ties things up as a digital exclusive for the single. Twisted bass textures terrorize, whilst remaining composed and almost nonchalant, sewing an element of funk into the track. Bound to catch you off guard!

Cern | 13. Under Another Sky
Cern | 14. Solon
Cern | 15. End of Another Sky

Travelling the world from NZ to UK and reflecting on his experiences, Cern releases his second album “Under Another Sky” on Dispatch Recordings. Captaining an enthralling quest into his creative sphere, this project encapsulates a wide breadth of influences, delivering an all-rounded album that is both diverse and quality in substance.

Cern exercises total freedom across tempos and genres to map out a complex blueprint of his own fictional world; welcoming you to drift off into its atmosphere. As the novel unwinds, “Under Another Sky” delves deep into the senses with seamless transitions; from the progressive amen curiosity of “Infinite Exchanges” through to the off-kilter, abstract forays of “Human Dynamics” and serene instrumentals of “Blumei”.

The LP features a 15 track digital album, hand-picked and arranged to enhance the listening experience, rather than catering or targeting to dancefloor crowds. Vast soundscapes and solo instrumental pieces assimilate with sub-bass pressure to complete an all-encompassing listening experience from start to finish.

Amongst his own solo ventures, guest artist collaborators join Cern to explore the full spectrum of the D&B edge. Rolling early on with DLR for groove ridden “Patterns” and later met by the emotive depth of “Those Left Behind” with Hydro, his darker side accumulates throughout the album, as rugged link ups with Loxy, Gremlinz and Overlook cause untold low end damage.

Experimenting with both orchestral and amen elements to contrasting effect, Cern offers a temporary retreat from reality to take you “Under Another Sky”.

My Nu Leng, Taiki & NUlight - Levels [Black Butter Records]

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.
