Firm label favourite SD makes his debut on the Dispatch Blueprints series with two tracks heavily influenced by the sound of the late 90s.

Continuing the homage to the old skool sound that shaped modern-day drum and bass, Blueprints 006 finds SD celebrating that magic period of peak musicality in the late 90s.

With its epic, cinematic intro and the return of upright double bass samples, '1997' is a classy roller that twists and weaves its way through old school drum work and vocal samples - the perfect modern progressive update.

'One Kind' continues the same theme but with a nostalgic piano lead and a bassline reminiscent of the deep, early Matrix/Metro Recordings sound.

Combining classic liquid sentiments with the grit of modern drum and bass, SD delivers essential listening.

Continuing the Most Violent Year Album project, NC-17 returns with the second instalment of this epic trilogy of long players.

Each part of this album series was written during a year in which the global pandemic took hold, intense political disruption created unstable futures and media outlets across the world became further polarised and outraged, creating vast swathes of angered and confused people, unsure of who to trust. This second edition encapsulates that paranoid, tense, terror - moving on from the looming dread of the unknown that formed the basis of Part 1.

Beginning each part of the album with an entirely new batch of tunes, Part 2 represents 13 of the best cuts from over 50 tracks written just for this chapter of this epic trilogy. By beginning with a fresh palette and creating entirely new music for each section NC-17 was able to keep each part distinct, and the music contained within this speaks exactly to the feelings he experienced during the project.

Alongside 8 incredible solo productions are collaborations with some of the dnb scene’s most notable talents, 5 exceptional tracks featuring Kolectiv & OB1, Myth, Philth, Dr. Apollo and Logam.

Representing the continued development of the NC-17 sound this album includes some of his best work to date, we’re proud to present ‘Most Violent Year Album – Part 2’.

Sequences returns to Dispatch Limited for this his first solo release on the label, the ‘Atlantis EP’ - 6 tracks of deep, rolling, tech funk with a twist. 

Title track ‘Atlantis’ sets the tone for the whole project, with dreamy atmospherics that drift into growling bass. The clever juxtaposition of this dramatic contrast hits just right.					

With Sequences’ first outing for Dispatch being a collaboration on Brain’s ‘Oscilloscope EP’ in 2019, it is only fitting that Brain joins him to collaborate for ‘Gargle’. The epic introduction packed with suspense from eerie pads and rasping synths soon descends into paranoid metal funk. 

Over four more solo productions Sequences completes the EP with the syncopated ‘Only Me’, the rolling dynamic basslines of ‘Botulism’ and ‘Champagne Bubbly’, before again perfectly balancing the light and dark of ‘Dredge’. 

An impressive solo debut on the label, we’re proud to present Sequences’ ‘Atlantis EP.’

We welcome back Brain to Dispatch Recordings for the ‘Looking Forward EP.’ Following on from the epic ‘Slow Burn EP’ from May 2021, this new EP features 5 tracks of rolling funk in his own inimitable style. 

The growling bass line of title track ‘Looking Forward’ rolls out underneath looping vocal samples, ever growing and developing as it progresses through the tune creating an epic dystopian stomper. 

The EP features a total of 4 solo productions alongside a particularly heavyweight collaboration with Dunk for the tough and rugged ‘Gonna be hard’. Fans of Brain will already know what to expect from his rich, layered technical style, if this is your first experience then you’re in for a treat.

Storming into 2021 with the final instalment of his widely acclaimed ‘Bubblers’ EP series, Whiney’s last four-tracker offloads serious amounts of heat closing the three-part series with a bang. With DJs from all corners of the scene supporting the Bubblers EPs, from Chase & Status to DJ Marky, Keeno to AC13, ‘Bubblers: Part Three’ raises the bar once more as Whiney stamps his sonic identity as a top player within drum & bass. This might be his last Bubblers EP but it’s definitely not the least.

Teaming up with North London-based MC Subten, drum & bass meets grime on ‘Headlines’. The infusion of styles sees two of the UK’s most loved underground genres collide as Subten lays down his impeccable flow over Whiney’s production mastery which brings the sounds of 140 into 174 territory.

‘Freedom Dub’ draws for ambient soundscapes and enchanting vocal samples as it rolls into a deep drum & bass cut fuelled by a signature bubbling bassline and crunch-packed breaks. Smooth amens and gliding mid-ranges keep the track moving as Whiney continues to make his mark on the scene.

Flipping over to side B, dreamlike vocal melodies and luscious chord swells induce a hypnotic state on ‘Mirage’. A nod to Whiney’s old-school jungle influence, raw and rugged breakbeats and addictive 808 throbs pay homage to the classic sounds of the 90s.

‘Yesterday’ incorporates mesmerising synth arpeggios which float above chugging drums, saturated with elements of techno inspiration. Hissing basslines and skippy percussions transform the track into a no holds barred weighty stepper.

With ‘Bubblers: Part Three’ marking the last edition of his trailblazing EP series, this is only the beginning of Whiney’s new chapter. Renowned for creating futuristic and forward-thinking productions, and an impressive back catalogue including two albums ‘Talisman’ and ‘Waystone’ under his belt, it’s no surprise that Whiney’s music receives consistent support from leading radio tastemakers including Rene LaVice, Laurent Garnier and DJ Target. Proving himself to possess an arsenal of highly sought after unreleased tracks often showcased in his Bubblers Mixtape series, if one thing's for certain it’s that the only way is up for Whiney.

We’re proud to bring you our next release from Zero T, returning to the label after 2019’s Dispatch Dubplate 013 and 2018’s Little Pieces LP. 

Zero T's discography reflects the diversity that his DJ sets have always shown, ranging from full vocal smoothness to more rolling, dance floor styles. This release is no exception, with two tracks ‘Hurt Inside’ and ‘Sonic Bionic’ effortlessly demonstrating his range and varied influences.

‘Hurt Inside’ was written with an early 2000's MIST influence. The piano and vocal are the beating heart of this track, setting the mood perfectly. All the other elements have been kept clean and simple so as to not get in their way. 

‘Sonic Bionic’ began with the harp loop, channelling a dark Wu Tang type of vibe. From there the inspiration just flew – a Bristol style, two-tone ascending bass with hip hop vocal samples and scratches combined with a stepping beat. A simple, stripped back groove - one for the DJs.

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.
