RAMPAGE  War!  (Nightshifters)
The Beatport page for Rampage's War EP

Ghetto Division DJ and producer Rampage pretty much sums up the squad’s modus operandi with the title track of this EP: throw it all together and see if it works. Some sections of the tune are chilly dubstep, heavy on the style’s signature wobbling bass, and here and there the beat doubles up for an explosive transition into ravey jock-jam synth stabs—but then, instead of following through on that setup and segueing into what the Flosstradamus guys call “power house,” the song drops in a throbbing hip-hop beat at half the tempo of the four-on-the-floor thump you’d expect. “Southside Anthem” is Rampage’s take on juke, spiced with vocal samples and staccato synth horns, both of which get chopped up more and more finely until the whole thing melts down into a sampler-crashing blur. Three of the seven tracks are remixes, and two of those are by Mancunian production duo Heavyfeet—including a hard drum ’n’ bass version of “War” that could’ve ended up on a Metalheadz comp if it’d been released a dozen years ago.
