A Little While Longer: a longing for a brief moment in time. A thought back to days past and time spent with loved ones or friends. What we do with the brief moment we have in this life. What we decide is important enough to spend it on.

It’s been more than four years since Lenzman’s last project on The North Quarter. During his absence the label has hardly struggled, continuing to demonstrate its relevance with a roster of diverse and exciting international artists. This has set the stage for his welcome and long awaited return home with ‘A Little While Longer’.

Written over a space of three months, it tackles the emotions and challenges of a total change of rhythm and routine, frustrated confinement and overcoming a void in inspiration. In the end it was once again his close family that inspired his creativity and process.

This body of work was brought together by the use of old recordings and found sound, sampling bespoke piano pieces and through collaboration, as well as forever finding his inner thoughts and feelings as his primary guide. This brief moment in time might feel more like an interlude, but it's an extended one that shows off Lenzman's signature brand of Hip Hop influenced Drum & Bass music.

We welcome back the talented Ben Soundscape to Dispatch Limited for the ‘Desert Swim EP’.

Setting out to create something darker ‘My Business’ sees Ben explore heavier territory, something he is not known for in his solo production. Working late nights, uninterrupted, allowed this sound to take shape, the track taking its name from the vocal sample that feeds off the bassline, warping and distorting throughout the track.

The EP takes its name from the misheard vocal sample in the title track ‘Desert Swim’. Providing a theme and idea to the track, the idea of taking a swim in the sand reminiscent of a trip by camel across the Sahara desert, as seen in the artwork for the release.

The track ‘Breathe’ was made on a trip to Vienna to work on music with RoyGreen & Protone pre covid restrictions. Wanting to create something dancefloor but with a quirky bass hook. The end result of the regular collab session involved a lot of modulation, chopping and enveloping to get the bass groove going.

‘Instances’ is another deep roller, based on the Scorpio break – tuned it to fit perfectly with the pads and other elements in the track. It gave the track some old skool influence.

Command Strange is back at the controls for his first solo V Recordings release since his Rockin EP at the tail end of 2019. Since, Alexey spent twelve months touring Europe, USA and a string of festivals (pre-COVID), and 2020 saw him release two collaborative releases with Danny Wheeler on Liquid V. His 2020 release schedule also featured an EP on Fokuz, a single with L-Side, as well as two killer remixes.

We're really excited to have him back with us for the Mystery EP, a four track body of work featuring T.R.A.C., Christina Tamayo and MC Fava. Recently Alexey has been spreading his wings in terms of experimentation, delving more into the harder, more dance-floor orientated styles, but for this EP he shifts the focus back to his more soulful, funky style.

Oliver Ferrer (@oliverferrer) makes his debut for Innerground with a beautiful pairing of tracks on the True Love EP. 

Oliver Ferrer is bringing that Brazilian flair with him as he rolls out "True Love" and "Looking For Someone" - both of which have received some heavy rotation from our very own DJ Marky on stage and in studio mixes for the likes of @djmag and @fabric . 

"True Love" & "Looking For Someone" both draw on some fantastic instrument work - the former working with keys and the latter holding true to the rolling vibe with a string accompaniment. 

All in all another set of tried and tested rollers drenched in summer vibes.
