Dark Themes always goes well with some nice drums😅

@smyahh is an eclectic producer with a variety of styles all stemming out from the sound system culture. We are excited to present his first drum and bass album with which he expresses his love towards the genre, which has been a major source of inspiration for him throughout the years. While most of his previous work leans towards dubstep, ambient and beats, Range of Motion sets the tone for a new path of exploration in the 170+ bpm sonics.

Releases December 17, 2025

This is also our first drum and bass release with which we are inviting all the dnb heads out there to join us on this journey.

We welcome Dave Owen and NC-17 back to Dispatch for this 4 track EP featuring RMS, Black Opps and Dre.

Inspired by West Coast Rap and horror films of the ’90s, Dave Owen and NC-17 present four tough and driving tracks, packed with cinematic atmosphere and heavyweight drums.

The title track ‘Outlaw’ is a collaboration with Canadian talent RMS featuring the Los Angeles based MC Andre’ Dew better known as MC Dre – a staple in the USDNB scene to bring that full west coast flavour.

‘Night of the Creeps’ sees Brazilian producer Black Opps join the pair for a minimal rolling stepper, soaked in horror samples and creeping eerie vibe.

1. “Outlaw (ft. MC Dre)” – Dave Owen, NC-17 & RMS
2. “Deviant” – Dave Owen & NC-17
3. “Mutiny” – Dave Owen & NC-17
4. “Night Of The Creeps” – Dave Owen, NC-17 & Black Opps

Dave Owen, NC-17 & Black Opps - Night of the Creeps - Dispatch Recordings 160 - OUT NOW

Available now on general release via:

• All stores - https://fanlink.to/DISBTKLP001

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.

01. “Andromeda”
