We welcome SD back to Dispatch with the “Toni Solidi EP”. The Italian maestro brings us 4 tracks of “solid tones” – the translation of which forms the title of the EP. 

‘Hatchet’ takes its name from Lock Stock’s ‘Hatchet Harry’, the tune is built from industrial foley samples and a looped voice track. Tight, sharp cuts and psychotic mumbling fitting perfectly with the character. 

The release continues this theme with ‘Mastadon’ a dark percussive stomper, ‘Wires’ packed with raw, nervous energy, and ‘Don’t You’ contrasting the rough, funk led beats with warm distortion and a liquid edge.

1. "Hatchet" 
2. "Mastodon" 
3. "Wires" 
4. "Don't You"

Michael Regent, aka Rego, is a Jungle and Drum & Bass DJ based in South Devon. Originally from the South East of England, his journey into the underground began at age 14, immersed in UK hardcore and early jungle tape packs. By 16, in 1994, he was fully embedded in the rave scene, shaping his passion behind the decks.

Known for his versatility and deep knowledge of the genre, Rego brings an eclectic energy to every set, effortlessly blending across all subgenres of Jungle and D&B. Whether it's rolling amens, dark techy rhythms, or old school flavours, his selections reflect a true Junglist's spirit and decades of dedication to the sound.

My name is Isay, lover of electronic music (Rave) in most of his genres and subgeneros ... my tastes are largely influenced by high speeds, choosing among my favorite music genres the Drum & Bass or the Jungle, likewise Jump Up, Neurofunk, Technoid, Techstep and among other variety of subgeneros that they propose ... for the moment I only make homemade mixtures without any type of devices out of the ordinary of course I always try to get the juice to the best playlists and Tracks in the area ...

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.
