Optiv & BTK - Introvert - Red Light Records - OUT NOW!

Counting almost three years in the game now, Demand Records have set themselves a mammoth task. To continually release music that cuts through the mounting levels of hype that surround the drum and bass scene of 2013 while retaining an edge of experimental innovativeness is no easy feat.

Luckily, by pushing the task onto the greatest talents of the deep, dark and creative side of the scene, the label have achieved exactly what they set out to do. Drum & Bass on Demand 2 is a collection of darkly intelligent beats from some of the label's biggest stars, as well as some incredible new talents.

After pairing up on "The Limits" Linden & Detail return on D&B on Demand 2 with "Fringe". A big bouncing bassline with claustrophobic atmosphere.

Following a string of successful label releases in a short period of time, DLR is ready to unleash his debut solo album on Dispatch Recordings, entitled ‘Seeing Sounds’.

Having previously collaborated with Octane on the ‘Method In The Madness’ album, DLR has quickly established his own signature sound; an instantly recognizable groove mischievously poking through the mix, terrorizing dancefloors in a truly unique way.

As an album concept, ‘Seeing Sounds’ is DLR’s exploration into sound design and how the manipulation of organic elements and subtle soundscapes can create imagery within the music; to set the scene and immerse the listener up to a cinematic level.

Commencing this quest from abstract beginnings, DLR investigates over a selection of different formats and styles, ranging from the tantalizing neck snapper “Charlie Brown” to the sinister breakbeat nonchalance of “I Found Out”.

Inviting external influences to the fold; specially selected guests join the project to explore further, including Total Science, creating the cataclysmic “Control The Sound”, Hydro, the ambient chords and emotive vocal sample in ‘Empyreal” and partner in crime Break, resulting in the mighty, yet constrained “Human Error”.

Since Resident Advisor’s initial announcement, the album has garnered support from all corners, including Noisia, Friction (numerous Radio 1 plays), Goldie, Calyx & Teebee and The Upbeats, with Mixmag selecting it as their February ‘Album of the Month’. The early support from Friction on his BBC Radio 1 show also led to a special invite where DLR dropped an album mix in for live broadcast on the 13th of January.

With an innate understanding of the technology available and a shrewd willingness to exploit it, ‘Seeing Sounds’ is the culmination of DLR’s very best work to date.

Philth returns to Dispatch for 2016, with a 2nd EP entitled ‘The Circle’ to follow up last year’s ‘Cosmos’. Developing his journey and continuing to impress, it cements his status as one of the key up-comers to watch in D&B this year.

Harboring a lethal groove amongst tightly crafted drums and relentless lows, Philth keeps us intrigued through the chaos. With dark soundscapes and carefully chosen samples, the intensity levels remain high, but energy is retained consistently, without ever losing momentum.

His debut track on Dispatch ‘Your Love’ receives a huge rework from SCAR to lead the EP, plus a fresh 2016 remaster, whilst dancefloor pick ‘Yeti’ joins two collaborations; a shadow stepper with Kolectiv & Bredren and infectious title track ‘The Circle’ alongside Wreckless.

Our first release of 2017 sets things off with deadly introduction, as we proudly welcome another first – the debut EP from Bristol based Kyrist, coincidentally this happens to be our first ever female solo release on Dispatch.

Causing a ruckus thus far with a string of gritty, yet groove filled singles and remixes, the ‘Venomous EP’ is the pinnacle of Kyrist’s work to date, featuring four superb tracks that shows her diversity in production, but really showcasing her bread and butter – those screwface steppers we’ve come to love, earning the support of S.P.Y., Ant TC1, Zero T, Kasra and Survival so far.

‘Venomous EP’ shuffles through hard hitting grooves, both infectious and rebellious in the mid ranges, uncompromising on the low ends (see title track ‘Venomous’), perfectly equipped for dark rooms with large rigs, and firm favourites at recent Dispatch events, such as ‘Tectonicz’.

On a deeper tip, Kyrist also enlists Irish soulster Steo for a vocal performance in ‘Find A Meaning’, aided in expressing a more soulful side we’ve not previously seen from her, yet still keeping that sharper edge to it.

Fragments Vol. 3 [FMR010]

Cynical Gene - Resurgence [Premiere]

OPTIV is a name firmly embedded in both the forefront and deep memory of any true fan of drum & bass. He emerged into the scene with the seminal Cause4Concern sound, which made an enduring mark that influenced many of today’s great artists, including Noisia, and helped to mould the tech aesthetic that we –know today. The Optiv moniker erupted into existence a few years after the establishment of Cause4Concern, with the founding of his own label Red Light Records in 2002, an imprint that continues to be influential in both launching the careers of promising artists such as Inward, Hanzo & Randie, Impak as well as putting out high quality audio from established artists such as Tobax, Telekinesis, The Upbeats and Black Sun Empire. This is in addition to running the pioneering C4C Recordings imprint, that’s been committed to pushing forward-thinking tech for close to two decades now.
Over the course of Optiv’s prolific and long-running solo career, he’s released on a significant range of labels, including leading taste-makers such as Virus, Playaz, Blackout, Subtitles, Eatbrain, Hospital, Shogun Audio, Invisible and Dispatch to name just a few. His commitment to a pure analogue sound, inspired by his techno and electro roots, in combination with a stripped aesthetic that requires audio purity, has ensured that his sound remains both timeless and ahead of the pack. With years of experience behind him to apply to the dance, as well as his immaculate sense for freshness, Optiv is a tried and tested artist who continues to make a significant impact on the drum & bass sphere.
