Park Shadow is the project of Finnish producer Joonas Lehtinen, a figure whose roots stretch back to the late '90s Tracker era (where many early seminal OG jungle / D&B tracks were first rooted production wise). A very personal vision of drum and bass, this project reflects a balance between natural formlessness and urban grit. Park Shadow has (to date) released music on established labels such as Metalheadz, Dispatch, Straight Up Breakbeat, DSCI4, and Utopia Music. Across 2 releases (in sequence) for Dispatch Blueprints, Park Shadow delivers music born from instinct - capturing a feeling in the moment of their creation, untouched by calculation or compromise. Preserving that raw spark of creation, while paying homage to the foundations of jungle and drum & bass. Here we present the second of 2 volumes from this outstanding European producer.

Roygreen & Protone deliver their debut Dispatch Blueprints release in fine form. The label aims to celebrate the heritage sound of drum and bass, given a modern twist from the viewpoint of contemporary production and influences. The Austrian duo are joined by rising talent Monologue for the rolling, meditative 'AOO' and deliver serious bass-weight on 'Fallout' - Essential listening.

Battery & Philth return to Dispatch Blueprints with Blueprints 023, continuing a journey that began with their landmark Majesty EP on Dispatch - a release that sparked a long-running partnership and the creation of the Majesty brand. Written together in the Battery studios, these four tracks lean deeper into the soulful, emotive influences that have shaped their sound, with a firm nod to jungle, liquid funk and the house-inflected drum & bass legacy of Marcus Intalex. From the euphoric, rudeboy jungle energy of Sunshine featuring Deeizm, to the deep, driving soul of Stay, the Swerve-era nostalgia of Moving On with Craggz on guitar, and the future-leaning RnB-DnB fusion of Thighs, this release captures a modern take on classic sonics. Crafted using analogue gear and true in-room collaboration, Blueprints 023 feels right at home on the Blueprints series.

With over two decades immersed in sound, Matt Chapman - aka Wreckless - delivers his debut Dispatch Recordings Album - 'Unforced Rhythms': a mature and deeply personal body of work shaped by his experience as an artist, educator and audio engineer. Active in audio since 2004, Wreckless is a lecturer at two London universities, mixing & mastering engineer and established producer with music on Metalheadz, Dispatch Recordings, Subtitles, Sofa Sound, Flexout, Fokuz, Peer Pressure, Rebel Music and more. His work has received support across BBC Radio 1, 1Xtra, Asian Network and Noisia Radio, reflecting the breadth of his reach across scene and sound. This album channels that lifetime of practice. Drawing on his background in mixing, narrative-driven sound design and musical storytelling, Unforced Rhythms explores patience in creation - finding power in space, choosing subtlety over excess and letting emotion drive production. The title speaks to trusting momentum rather than forcing it, in music and in life. The album explores recurring themes of decision-making, humility, faith, space and control. Its tracks move between rolling floor energy, meditative atmospheres and reflective listening pieces - all underpinned by Wreckless' technical precision and emotional focus.

Volume 3 of the 'Last Of A Dying Breed' EP series is here - NC-17 & Philth continue their collaborative celebration of tech drum and bass. Five tracks inspired by this classic era, updated with modern production techniques and the creative flair this pair of talented producers are known for. Layered, rolling, progressive tracks that deliver huge dancefloor appeal.
