Dismantle

We cooking.. Stay tuned

Solid start to the year.. Very happy to be playing up at Parklife this summer - first time back since 2014! Been building a lot over the last 6 months - ready to showcase the new heat, with a few been made with some very special people.. looking forward to dropping some of these soon 💫

Last Saturday I was invited to be in the hot seat for the Sweatbox mix for the legend @sherelle_ on @bbc6music It’s a 30min mix I put together of some tunes that I’d play in a more intimate venue. Varied bunch of stuff I’ve been feeling recently, some weighty bits from over the years and some unreleased tracks, remixes and VIPs from myself! Very nice to be back on the beeb airwaves and big thanks for Sherelle and the R6 gang for having me on board Listen back link in bio 🔗

My new EP - Reflections - is out NOW on @whp_records 🚀🚀 About a year ago was the start of some of these records out today - coupled with a few tracks I’d dusted off from the computer. The concept behind the whole EP was to bring different elements from all the projects and sounds I’ve worked in over the years and put them into one piece, whilst elevating arrangements and pushing myself with my production. Really happy to be sharing these with you all!! Huge shouts to the guys and team at the WHP label for letting me showcase this as a body of work and also big dog @lukefono for helping getting this all into its final form After the graft on this I can’t wait to be sharing what’s coming up next and working on getting much more new music finished Onwards 🫡

‘Reflections’ - Dismantle // a fresh EP out this Friday on WHP Records. An expansive and indulgent 6 track record that sees Dismantle explore emotional catharsis within his superb productions, breaking fresh sonic ground as he does so. 🕊️

Tomorrow Will Be Different // @will_dismantle From his forthcoming EP ‘Reflections’ on @whp_records Dismantle is an inimitable figure in UK Bass Music. Well respected for over a decade under this and other monikers (check @dametalmessiah recent posts for a deep dive into Dismantle’s career), the second release on WHP Records embeds deep emotional catharsis directly into the production itself. On the point of production, this is one of the crispest sounding selection of masters we’ve put through the speakers in a long while. The engineering, production and mixing skill on display here and across the EP are second to none. It’s a joy to listen to.

Tomorrow will be different… cus new music is landing! 🛬 My second release via @whp_records  out tomorrow! Cmonnnnn 💥💥💥

My set from Keep Hush / Boomtown is now live!! 💥 Few new heaters, couple party specials and some throwbacks amongst music from some of my favourite artists. Felt great to be back up there. It has been a minute! Massive thanks to @keephush_ and Boomtown for having me down! 💚 Watch it full over on YouTube - Link in bio 🔗 Enjoy!

Dismantle: Deconstructing Genres Most artists build their name within a single genre and end up tied to that sound. But when you hear the name Dismantle, what comes to mind? Dubstep? House? Jungle? Maybe even jazz? @will_dismantle is one of those rare artists who refuses to be boxed in. His breakthrough came with ‘Computation’, released on N Type’s Wheel & Deal Records when he was just 18. The track instantly put him on the map, earning international DJ bookings and heavy support from Skream & Benga, Annie Mac and Zane Lowe. On the surface it was a dubstep anthem, but even then it was bending the rules, its dutch house-inspired 4x4 rhythm blurring the lines of what “dubstep” could be. Follow-up releases on labels like Shy FX’s Digital Soundboy only underlined his range. Drum and bass was actually his first step into electronic music, so it was natural for him to circle back to the genre, first with DJ Die as DieMantle, then later as part of Watch The Ride alongside Die and the late, great Randall, producing dancefloor heaters with the likes of D Double E & Nia Archives. Unlike many artists who create new aliases for every experiment, Dismantle largely kept his name front and center. The exception was Nuff Pedals, born from his obsession with West London’s broken beat sound. After discovering it in the early 2010s, he threw himself into learning keys and music theory, practicing daily from 2015 until he was ready to release a full album in 2020. Now, after years of collaborations and deep dives into different sounds, Dismantle is stepping into a new chapter as a solo artist. His ‘Reflections EP’ on Warehouse Project Records feels like the culmination of years spent honing his craft, moving seamlessly between heavy low-end pressure and soaring euphoric highs, kicked off with the first single, “Bleek,” a demo left sitting on his computer since 2021. With Dismantle tracks soundtracking festivals all summer, including “Junk,” championed by Ben UFO, this release signals the start of something wide open. The only question now is which boundaries Dismantle will choose to break next.
