The latest from one of V Recording’s brightest talents, the Born To Run EP sees the Brazilian Level 2 effortlessly drop four majestic tracks across the Drum and Bass spectrum. 

Cutting his teeth on DJ Marky's Innerground, Chronic and Liquid V, Brazilian producer Level 2 has set the scene aflame with his blend of chilled and rave-focused beats. The Brazilian producer has already made his mark within Drum and Bass scene, with tracks such as Deeper Love, She Goes Away and Tone Tone showing his obvious talent and ability to turn his hand to any style. Now after mixing the sunshine infused Viva Brazil compilation, Level 2 returns to V Recordings with the huge Born To Run EP. 

Combining his obvious production talent with natural South American flair, the Born to Run EP is the most complete work yet from a producer hitting his stride. Kicking off with stunning vocals from Hannah Eve over the melodic All I Would Say and the old school amens of Born To Run, Level 2 effortlessly shifts gears, moving from one style to the next. Next up, the deep vibes of Reaction show a soulful side to the Brazilian’s production before the uplifting, piano-driven Keep On brings the EP to a close. Touching on jungle, chilled, liquid and even elements of jazz, The Born To Run EP is the most accomplished, well-rounded, release yet from Level 2 - and truly worthy of the V Stamp!

Massl started DJing in 2006 inspired by the dark and heavy sounds of Noisia, Phace, Teebee and Calyx. Since this time he played over a hundred gigs in clubs in Germany and Austria. When he moved to Karlsruhe in 2007 he also arranged several successful parties. A few months later Massl realized that DJing was not enough which resulted in starting to produce own Drum and Bass tracks. He released tracks on known labels like Bad Taste and T!LT recordings.

DIS085 “The Microsleep EP”.

Quadrant, Kid Hops & Iris | A. Microsleep
Quadrant, Kid Hops & Iris | B1. Convergence (DLR & Ant TC1 Re-Converge)
Quadrant & Cease | B2. Warsaw
Quadrant & Iris | C. Genesis Wave [Digital Exclusive]
Quadrant, RoyGreen & Protone | D. Right Now [Digital Exclusive]

Release Date: 20/10/2014

Seattle based Quadrant sets the bar high with his first Dispatch EP, entitled “The Microsleep EP”, otherwise known as “MicrosleEP” for short.

Collaborating with different artists on each track, a distinctive Quadrant signature groove strikes the lower frequencies throughout the EP. With fellow collaborators Iris, Kid Hops, Cease, RoyGreen & Protone all bringing their own specialist touches to the mix, the EP resembles a mixing flask from a meddling scientist; collating individual resources and including all the intricate details and calculations to create a lethal strain at 170bpm and up!

Quadrant, Kid Hops & Iris lead the EP with title track, "Microsleep", a dark insomniac that comfortably sweeps through a 4am dancefloor without hesitation. Their very first collaboration on Dispatch LTD “Convergence” receives the remix treatment too, as DLR & Ant TC1 join forces to “Re-Converge” on the original, masterfully tuning up the already malicious hub and re-igniting the drums into a new more stepping, switched-up take on a superb original from Seattle's finest.

Exclusively aired on BBC Radio 1Xtra, the momentous moans of "Genesis Wave" follow soon after, rolling ruthlessly and re-fueling at every break, before a cascading helix of sub-low pressure carries ice cold "Warsaw" into battle. To complete the EP, "Right Now" written alongside talented Austrian duo Roygreen & Protone delivers that final, lethal blow, as arcane musical elements curiously harmonise, only to contrast spectacularly with a pulsating bassline drop that almost blows the lids clean off the speakers.

*Critical Taste vs. Eremit* -Reflection(DreaMy ediT)

Skeptical will be opening the Exit Records 2015 release schedule on 19th January with a 4 track 12" EP. Believe it or not, this is Skeptical's debut solo release on Exit, with previous contributions consisting of his monster collaboration with Dub Phizix and Strategy, the mighty Marka, as well as individual tracks on the Mosaic series 1 and 2.
 
The EP features the percussive roller and title track 'Imperial', which has been taking dance floors deep into the jungle over the last few months in typical Skeptical fashion. As usual with his tracks this is not laptop music. Sub bass is essential to appreciate the full production qualities and the whole EP demonstrates his power to achieve the utmost with the very minimum.
 

Skeptical - Imperial


DJ Die - Music is one of my favourite tracks ever and the remix is top class!”
DJ Hype - I love the way this remix has not  lost the flavour of the original classic 
LTJ Bukem - Subtle and smooth rework, love how Technicolour introduces the original Music bells, fading them up in the mix, makes you almost not realize what your actually listening to, love it!
Bryan G - When I first heard this track it felt like a spiritual journey into music. This remix leaves me feeling exactly the same. Mad props to Technicolour, they rolled out one of the biggest classics in drum & bass.
Jack Frost - Music rework is like a brand new record but with that same class and instant appeal as the original recording .. Great record
Lenzman - My first piece of Drum & Bass vinyl was "Music" and I have to say that the Technicolour rework is stunning. A great re-imagining of the original.
EZ Rollers - When remixing a classic such as Music it is easy to get it wrong and difficult to get it right. Well, Mr Technicolour you got it so right! 10/10
Technicolour - 	'Music' is one of THE cornerstones of jungle to me, one of a handful of tracks that really laid a foundation for everything that has come to pass since. So I hope my deep reverence for the original comes through in the remix. 
Furney - Nice little re-hash of Bukems classic, the new elements swirl it up nicely and the rolling break rattles in your face faster than an Olympic gold medallist. The unforgettable bass hook, faithfully reproduced, make this a chin stoker and a leg shaker.  Don't miss this one.
Blu Mar Ten - True to the craft.
Jay Rome - Really love this remix by Technicolour....he still kept the great dreamy vibe of the original and made a solid update of it....Technicolour never does wrong.
Command Strange - It's really great remix, now this legendary track sounds fresh to the old spirit! BIG!
Malaky - Amazing rework of one of my all time favourites.Still got the vibes of the original but with a modern twist.Not an easy task to remix such a classic track,but Technicolour's got it spot on.Can't wait for this one!!!!!

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.
