Safire

The Homeland EP

Travelling to our extended network at the other side of the globe, we welcome Australian producer Safire and his very first Dispatch Recordings EP. Emerging as one of the dark horses of the label of late, his debut EP consists of five superb tracks that combine raw elements with sophisticated production, to bring some of his best music to date. 

Leading on from “Power Of Thought”, Safire’s contribution the Transit 2 compilation, he heads straight for the jugular with title track “Homeland”. Deviating into 140 bpm territory on his second solo effort of the EP, “Face Your Fear”, Safire proves he can master all tempos. Having previously joined forces with other artists for Dispatch in the past, Safire completes this EP by collaborating with yet more high profile artists. Working with DLR on the ruthless “Hurdles”, adding infectious vocals in “Timeline” with Cern, and sending out warning signals with Minor Rain for “Transit”.

Each track is brought together with meticulously assembled drums, an ultra-high level of technical quality - you can expect to see a lot more from Safire in the future.

Stray is a producer currently at the top of his game, weather it be his solo work or his collaborations and contributions to the trio Ivy Lab, his productions are going from strength to strength and he’s proving to be one of the most adaptable producers out there. 
Following his debut EP 'Matchsticks', Stray comes with the 'Chatterbox' EP on Exit Records in April.
Featuring a similarly versatile selection of tracks from the straight up dancefloor friendly ‘Award Tour’, the  wonky hip hop influenced halftime ‘Easy Boy’ through to the jungle influenced ‘Chatterbox’ and smooth laid back sounds of ‘Fragile’, the EP is picking up a shed load of support from dBridge, Om Unit, Friction, Alix Perez, Machine Drum, Sam Binga, Fracture and many more.

Darkai - Dial Up [Premiere]

Hold On

🧷 Read the interview with HOLLY (+ tracklist) → bit.ly/44InwsY

From the suburbs of Lisbon to the stages of Coachella, Holly has spent the last decade quietly blowing open the boundaries of bass music. A shapeshifter by nature, he’s just as comfortable crafting club experiments as he is producing for global rap royalty like CL, Slow J, or Jay Park.

Whether he’s linking with Baauer on a Grammy-nominated album or launching a future-facing supergroup like VIER alongside Machinedrum, Thys, and Salvador Breed, Holly’s work speaks to a restless creative vision. One that never stays still for long.

Fresh off an appearance on our Adrenaline series, we caught up with the Portuguese-born, LA-based producer to talk origin stories, global influence, studio rituals, and why collaboration is still at the heart of his sonic universe.
