**NOTE - We are shipping vinyl copies out from our store 3 weeks ahead of the general release date, postage starts on 2nd March exclusively from us directly)**

Following the hugely successful debut of our ‘Dispatch Dubplate’ label, with the first two vinyl releases selling out across all stores, we're proud to welcome #3 in the series, led predominantly by label favourite DLR. Much like the previous Dubplates, each vinyl will showcase a thicker set 180 grams in weight, hand numbered (1 – 300), hand-stamped, signed, with an added label sticker pack with all 300; never to be re-pressed.

Setting off the release, we're pleased to release our most in-demand dub from the past year; the mighty Break & DLR rework everyone has waited for – “Murmur VIP”. With the original first appearing in 2012 on Octane & DLR's “Method In The Madness” album, the Break & DLR VIP has revitalized the initial buzz of an already popular track, in spectacular fashion. Causing havoc on dancefloors worldwide, it has already seen heavy rotational support by Friction on his BBC Radio 1 show (with 6 plays on the show in total to date).

In addition, we present a new, original track from DLR; the immaculately detailed “Regeneration”. This drops us right back to the late 90s with a cosmic vibe that pays homage to the Virus / Konflict era, brought right up to date. Although delivered in a superbly tight, modern construct, it never loses its old school essence and authenticity. This release features two versions of the track, the “Generated Mix” is exclusive to the vinyl format, whilst the gnarly “Metamorphosis Mix” also features as a digital only bonus, both offering a very different take on a track that (in its original form) was never planned or set to surface, so we felt it fitting for this to appear on the Dispatch Dubplate label.

Completing the Dubplate comes the second re-work of the release, as “Tugboat” receives the remix treatment, with “The Moneyshot VIP” appearing on both vinyl and digital formats. A new take on DLR’s solo Dispatch single from 2013, the VIP is nothing short of a huge re-work and a complete re-invention of the original, taking a much more stepping dance floor approach from start to finish.

This release features a vinyl only track “Regeneration (Generated Mix)”. This will not be available in digital format at all. Vinyl buyers will be able to download all the other tracks, however this dubplate exclusive mix will never be available in any other format.

Each vinyl purchase will receive free 320kbps mp3 & wav files of all the available digital tracks. These will only become available to download on the Friday before general release and no sooner – this is the 20th of March as general release date is the 23rd March.

Dispatch dubplate product spec:
• 180g vinyl (thicker / heavier set than usual)
• Full inner label & additional bonus sticker pack included
• Kraft card outside sleeve (which will be 'stamped' on with a Dispatch Recordings label black ink stamp)
• Additional thin floppy plastic outer protection sleeve
• Signed by artists
• Numbered ___/300
• No re-press (ever!)

Out Now On Get Up Recordings
------------------
1. All You Got
2. All You Got (Gene Farris Deep Re-Rub)
3. All You Got (Joeski's Tech Work Mix)

L.A. is back in the house of Get Up Recordings with a new release from Nonfiction. This DJ / producer is no stranger to the label -- he did a banging remix of Honey Dijon’s “Tonight” back in 2011, and now he’s back with a mega track called “All You Got”. Chicago and New York City legends Gene Farris and Joeski join Nonfiction on the package by giving the remix treatment 'all they got.'

Born and raised in L.A., Nonfiction started to DJ in 1997 when he moved to Orange County. Originally a hip-hop DJ, he made the transition to house and started to play local parties. In 2004 he was added to the Focus OC DJ roster, whose weekly parties host top house DJ’s such as Derrick Carter, Doc Martin, DJ Heather, Diz, and Mark Farina. On the production end, he has had original tracks and remixes out on such labels as Relief, Lost My Dog, Uniting Souls, Farris Wheel, and Jump Recordings. His track for Get Up Recordings is a hard-hitting, nine-minute floor filler. The heavy kick and driving bass, layered with industrial accents, show his love of Chicago and tech house. The production reflects his style of DJ'ing: full of life and constant movement.

The two remixers on the package need very little introduction. First up is Chicago house legend Gene Farris. He has toured the world over as a DJ, holding long time residencies in both Chicago and Amsterdam during his career. His production work for Cajual, Relief Records, Defected Records, Soma Recordings, and his own breakout label, Farris Wheel Recordings, has solidified him as a true hit maker. He had three number ones in 2014 with “Phoenix” (Guest House), “Jackin” (Farris Wheel Recordings), and “Along Came The Spider” (Relief Records). His take on “All You Got” is evident of his depth as a producer. It has a classic Chicago deep house sound with syncopated plucked electric bass, backwards deep organ keys, and swinging percussion. He gets deep, melodic, and hypnotic with his angle on the joint.

House main-man Joeski got his start in NYC in the early '90s, DJ'ing clubs and parties such as The Tunnel, Limelight, Palladium, Save The Robots, and NASA, as well as his own Friday night party at the Roxy, Together. As with Gene, Joeski has also toured the world and further made his mark when he started heavily producing in the 2000s for such labels as Siesta, Junior Boys Own, Ministry of Sound, Tango, and his own homegrown label, Maya Records. He has really built such a solid production style. Joeski gives “All You Got” his sub heavy, grooving touch along with big room drumbeats, calling it his Tech Work Mix because it simply is just that. The track swells and builds into a frenzy, ultimately unleashing everything it’s got.

.

Tensnake - "That Gene Farris remix is nice." 
Catz'n Dogz (3 Channels) - "Gene Farris's deep version is my favorite here." 
Stacey Pullen - "This is cool." 
Tony Humphries - "Nice hyped track!" 
Chris Fortier (Fade) - "Super stuff. The original good, but having two legends on the remixes makes it better." 
Mark Farina - "Nice!" 
Joris Voorn (Green / Rejected) - "Joeski's remix … yeah!" 
Louis Osbourne (Mija Recordings) - "All mixes are bad-ass … Joeski's is probably on the top for me."

Luke Solomon (Classic Music Co) - "Liking this." 
Clive Henry (Crosstown Rebels / Circo Loco) - "The Gene Farris mix is cool." 
Severino (Horse Meat Disco) - "Strong release … all mixes are awesome."

Mauoq Music presents:

Cat.# : MQM003
Title : Both Worlds / Mannoy
Artists : Mauoq
Label : Mauoq Music
Format : Digital
Release Date : 18 May 2015 (Bandcamp) / 25 May 2015 (all stores)

The opening track of this 2-tracks single is a soulful halfstep number with a rumbling sub bass, traces of ‘epicness’ in the intro and strains of dub-funk across its main sections. 

BOTH WORLDS [Mauoq Music 003]_clip

Fade has been on the Diffrent Music radar since the dawn of mankind. Five years later and they've finally managed to work together in a professional capacity. If you already know of Fade's music, then you'll notice that these works are quite out of the Ukrainian producers comfort zone to say the least. Basically put; two experimental tracks that both stand up alone but compliment one another together on this single.
