Ant TC1 is proud to present Transit 2 - a carefully selected palette of pure, technical drum & bass from producers across the globe and the latest various artists’ compilation from Dispatch Recordings.

Two years have flown by since the seminal Transit One album was dropped to critical acclaim and supported so universally across the board. The up & comers from our last project have since blossomed into today’s key tastemakers, paving the way for a wave of fresh new talent.

With the “Transit” series Dispatch Recordings strives to showcase the most exciting new talents alongside the established label favourites. When faced with such a vast body of music from both previous contributors and newcomers to the label, the project quickly began to take shape and we knew the time was right to bring to you this second chapter.

With a variety of tracks stretching right across the spectrum, the album reaches into a number of alternative vibes and tempos without compromising on the Dispatch quality. From the cool and callous “Apparatus” of Mindmapper & Fre4knc to the colossal beast that is Survival & Silent Witness’ “Paddy”, Transit 2 provides an assortment of technical brilliance over just one album.

Other tracks dip in and out of the dance-floor mould to provide a real contrast and depth to the project, making this complete package such an essential catalogue of future beats. Gamma’s deep & abstract “If U Go Away” takes the album down to a more experimental level and the heavily techno influenced, 4x4 stabs of Sleeper’s “Trojan” switches up the styles.

We are fortunate to have so much great talent presenting incredible productions on such a frequent basis. We're proud to offer a complete picture of the label’s current sound with this album.

Thanks for listening.

Silent Witness - Ballistix - Dispatch Transit 2 (CLIP) - OUT NOW

The wait is over, we are proud to unleash what is easily one of the most highly anticipated and talked about electronic albums of the year.

Jubei’s first L.P "To Have & Have Not" released on the seminal Metalheadz label shows exactly why Jubei is one of the most highly revered artists within the scene. "To Have & Have Not" delivers exactly what you would expect – the highest pinnacle of outstanding drum & bass / dubstep within its purest and most credible form. 

There is no compromise here, only undiluted content that stays true to the real art form and true to the craft. It's not music for faint hearted, or music aimed at infiltrating popular playlists, this is music for the those who truly appreciate the finest aspects of these incredible genres themselves and at every point "To Have & Have Not" from start to finish keeps it's roots set firmly in the music’s underground foundation. 

The album delivers with an unfaltering intent and truly demonstrates Jubei’s incredible versatility with tracks that traverse & transcend from one corner of the music to the next with an almost effortless and misleading ease. 

Each composition is within its own right a standout highlight. The track list includes a ridiculous amount of jaw-dropping collaborative talent. Credits for example see Jubei once again call on the vocal prowess of Flowdan for the LP’s massive follow up to past release "Say Nothing" entitled "The Moment". "State of the Art" flips the script at 170+ with SP:MC on vocal duties.  Further co production credits on the album bring Jubei together the forces of Goldie, D-Bridge & Youngsta just to name a few.

Albums like this don’t come along every day and whilst some artists now imitate with sights set firmly on commercial success only a select few can originate whilst continuing to cross boundaries so consistently. 

Thanks for listening.

The flip side sees a collaboration with Trichome. Singularity is a much darker approach but still ticks all the right boxes when it comes to top notch production skills. Let the polished percussion hits, blissful pads and ruff cut bass take you on a deeper journey into sound, as the pair engage on a musical attack which is second to none!

Playing a major role on both the ‘Programmed V1.0’ and ‘Programmed V2.0’ EPs, it was only a matter of time before EastColors released a full single with Program. Naturally, he’s stepped up. And he’s done so with two prize-fighting productions.

‘Toys’ is a one-way ticket to the furthest boundaries of the cosmos. Warm pads purr while a frosty arpeggio twinkles and subtle guitar strums shimmer softly in the background. An ageless reminder of how delicate certain elements of D&B can be when conjured in the right hands, ‘Toys’ will instantly arrest your crowd’s imagination. Countering the dreaminess with raw bass drama, the beats and chubby subs ensure full weight and presence. Complete with a modest, memorable vocal refrain, it’s the perfect balance of elements.

‘Creeper’ sets a much darker agenda: Opening with oceanic synth washes, an unrelenting breakbeat looms ominously in the mix. Firing hi-hats take the lead before we’re plunged into a cavernous drop where layers of irresistible bass envelop us. What follows is an industrial strength roller of junglist proportions. Referencing the past to lock fully into the future, this is EastColors at his most chiselled and uncompromising.

Russia’s a hotbed for D&B talent right now, but few of its exports come close to EastColors in terms of creative skills and technical abilities. A crucial contributor to the label since its earliest incarnations: It’s time, once again, to get with the Program!

Expect all the twists and turns in today’s modern Drum and Bass sound with originality through out on tracks such as Clockwork and In Hell. Also on the EP, we have a collaboration with Marvelous Southstar on Concrete Rose and a naughty VIP of No Escape which caused quite a bit of damage last time round.  

We have no doubt that the same results will be expected this time as well!

FORMAT : DIGITAL / 2 x 2EP / LTD 10” EDITION
#UNDERGROUNDSONICS

Kicking off 2014 in the most spectacular fashion, Critical Music enters its 12th year with its biggest artist compilation to date. Painstakingly put together by label boss Kasra over the past year, ‘Underground Sonics’ is an exciting overview of modern day drum & bass, showcasing the true dexterity of one of the most well regarded, independent electronic music labels in the UK today. 

Kasra has pulled out all the stops, sifting through his phone book to enlist the talents of some of the biggest and most exciting producers in the game. Noisia, Dub Phizix, Enei, Phace, Sam Binga and Kasra himself all make sterling contributions that make for an album of the best of Underground Sonic expression.
It’s been a few years since our last fully fledged label compilation so I wanted to ensure this one was as vital as possible. For me this album truly encapsulates the essence of Critical, a balanced mix of all that’s exciting about this music - heads down lights out rollers, experimental side steps and some slightly more aggressive attention grabbers. This album is made up of tracks by the core Critical acts alongside a select group of label friends and for me is a snapshot of where the label is at now and where it is heading." Kasra

Could This Be Real (Sub Focus D&B Remix)

Having had an incredible year already with singles from D-Bridge, Commix, Jubei & Flowdan, Lenzman and label boss Goldie, Metalheadz go all out with yet another impressive instalment of their ‘Genesis’ EP series. Dropping four heavy tracks, this one will definitely be at the forefront of the D&B elite’s playlists this winter.

First up Mortem delivers ‘Iceberg’ a hauntingly chilly piece of music with echoed vocal snippets, crisp two-stepping breaks, cavernous sound effects and a shifting slab of bass. All the elements combine effortlessly in Mortem’s hands as he crafts each moment with expert precision.

FD kicks down your front door and runs away with your prized possessions as he drops ‘Break & Enter’ – a chunky bass-weight track that sounds immense when played loud. This one will undoubtedly shake the bass bins of any club you care to drop it in.

Next up Prolix shows a slightly deeper side to his sound with winding Reese bass combinations and tight drums that roll endlessly across a grizzling background atmosphere. ‘What You Need’ must be a punch in the gut with Prolix’ sub bass! 

Rounding off the EP come Quadrant & Iris who team up on ‘Anthropocene’. Leading you in with a gentle intro with two step beats and far away pads you’re quickly drawn into a much grimier and heavier world as soon as the bassline drops. 

This is an impeccably produced and expertly hand-picked selection of the best drum & bass around; something you have always come to expect from Metalheadz.

Noisia & Hybris - Crystalline (INVSB003)


‘Aftermath (feat. Youthstar)’

‘Aftermath’ is the perfect example of Fourward’s ‘less is more’ approach to tech-funk. Teasing on the precipice of
anger, the opening track combines flitting hi-hats and futuristic edits as it builds towards the introduction of
Youthstar’s inimitable, towering vocals. ‘Aftermath’ represents an intriguing marriage of the new-age minimal
aesthetic with a delicate, bouncing sub-groove that lends the track a clinical yet unassuming edge rarely heard within
the neurofunk-aligned sub-genre of Drum & Bass.

For some hard Drum & Bass fans maybe like a dream come true:) The collaboration of this track went really good, and the result is proper Drum & Bass smasher with big cinematic intro that turns into hard DNB track with big distorted reece & smashing drums! Tested and works really good, specially if you start with this one! Really happy we could do this together with master Donny, really nice guy and good producer, FSRECS is happy to have this talent on the artist rooster:)
