V Recordings

No introductions needed here! One of V Recordings' main artists, Crystal Clear, links up with Overview's prolific underground-minded Creatures for a two track collaboration that might not be the pairing you expected, and we are all here for it. Bringing together two distinct styles, this release hits the sweet spot from the very first drop. Crunchy drums meet rhythmic grooves, rolling percussion, and sawing mid-tones, creating a heavyweight sound that draws on both artists' strengths while carving out something fresh. What makes this link up particularly interesting is the way both producers carry their own identities to the table. Crystal Clear's experience and instinct for weight and impact meet Creatures' stripped back, detailed approach to groove and texture, delivering something special, unique and full of character. We're extremely honoured to host these two artists at this stage of their musical journeys on Transparent Audio. Distributed by Label Engine - www.label-engine.com

Dispatch Recordings welcomes Rift back to the label with the Twisted EP, a five-track collection that leans into the driving, rolling and funk-fuelled side of his sound. Stepping away from the darker, atmosphere-led approach of his recent output, Twisted finds Rift exploring the rhythmic energy that first drew him to drum & bass. Drawing inspiration from the stripped-back precision of Fierce and Break's Quarantine-era productions alongside the unmistakable funk of artists like Jubei, Total Science and DLR, the EP balances raw groove with meticulous craftsmanship. While each track brings its own character, the release is united by a singular focus on movement, momentum and heavyweight rolling drums. Speaking on the release, Dispatch founder Ant TC1 said: 'Been a fan of Rift's style from the first demo I heard. He's got a daring to be raw in style approach that is often a bit of a lost art as almost complete sound design focus and overly clean production in general becomes more apparent and audible across most modern production I hear. He's not afraid to keep it that bit rugged and rough round the edges of pretty much any element that he gets sitting so cohesively alongside his rolling drums; it's a flavour I always loved (and never truly tired of) but it's one that's definitely missing a bit now in 2026. The production is outstanding but it's the 'done with grit' take of his that catches me the most.'
