UNIVERSAL PARADIGM  - PACE

Polaris - Obsidian

Our celebrations for 5 years of our humble little label continue and this time, we've brought in some wonderful talent to remix a couple of classics from our discography. We welcome Madusea, Incus and Elemental Entropy to the label for the first time, and welcome back Hex and Echo Motion. These artists have taken on tracks by K2T, Option, Sirus and Linear and have flipped them into bangers that morph the originals into a new entity.

Madusea steps into the ring first to remix 'Elder Spirit' by label boss K2T. By chopping up the original lead hook into short hits, Madusea has transformed the liquid/jungle hybrid into a dark, techy beast!

Echo Motion returns as a solo artist and takes on 'In The Clouds' by Option. While Echo Motion has been making a name for himself with beautiful liquid, this remix shows his darker side, as he turns Option's sultry track into a monster; watch out for the second-half switch!

Next up, Hex takes on Sirus' 'Arashi' and switches it into a roller as he does best. Chopping up the bass from the original while introducing the original breaks as fills, Hex effortlessly shows us how a real roller is made.

We're proud to welcome Occupy Sound boss Incus to Detached Audio, as he remixes 'Icebreaker' by Linear & K2T. The original dancefloor track is taken into a deeper direction while retaining the funk that made 'Icebreaker' a crowd favourite.

Finally, we have an alternative excursion from Hawaii-based Elemental Entropy, who turns Option's beautiful 'I Need It' into a deep, moody dubstep track. Smatterings of the original track's pianos are placed smoothly around a sparse 140 beat, which perfectly diversifies this phenomenal EP.

Our aim has always been to release diverse music from a range of people and this EP adds yet another arrow to our bow. 5 years have gone, and this aim will still be met in the years to come.

Dispatch Recordings is proud to present BTK’s 3rd Drum & Bass album, his first solo LP since the sad loss of his long term production partner Ed Optiv. The title ‘Hollow’ reflects that sense of loss, as BTK completes his return to drum and bass with the aim of making Ed proud.

Many will be familiar with the style of music BTK is well known for – often seen as a master of rolling, heavyweight funk made for the dancefloor. For this album, he set out to do things differently, crafting music that could be enjoyed both in or outside of the club – still full of that same raw and uncomplicated groove.

The album includes collaborations with some of his oldest friends. For ‘Oi’ the old school Metalheadz flavours of Gremlinz, combine with the Virus influenced style of BTK, to create the perfect combination of funk and tech from the early 2000s.

Ink is a producer BTK cites as a vital part of his music production journey since day one. Having made many tunes together throughout their career since meeting at an early dnb event in Rio de Janeiro, ‘The Last Scroll’ is a particularly special collab commemorating nearly 20 years of friendship.

Another repeat collaborator is Cologne-based Jumpat, with the pair previously releasing on BTK’s own label Dutty Audio. Complimenting each other’s style perfectly, this is a tag team to watch out for.

Easily demonstrating his wealth of production expertise and ability to capture the essence of rolling funk this album is a testament to BTKs long history of drum and bass production, one we are incredibly happy to be continuing at Dispatch Recordings.

Dunk - 'Glow'
Taken from the 'Boogie' EP.
ProgRAM 130

Flying the flag for Brazilian drum and bass, producer Dunk introduces himself on the Program platform through a brand new four track EP which zones in on the darker side of his local influences.

From start to finish the 'Boogie EP' packs a punch and this time it's through moody, dark atmospherics alongside chains of creeping basses. Starting with the painstakingly built layers of 'Glow' and the woven percussive slabs of 'Soldier Boy', it's a ruminating selection of tracks. Following suit is the ominous sounds of 'Flying Saucers' and the dreamlike whirring of the EP's title-track, closing the collection with a brooding aftertaste. So once again, it's time to get with the Program. One which now delves into the murky would of Dunk.Flying the flag for Brazilian drum and bass, producer Dunk introduces himself on the Program platform through a brand new four track EP which zones in on the darker side of his local influences.

OTW Premiere: Tephra - Shift [Dispatch Recordings]

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.
