A: D-Ranged – Raise The Dead
Clip:

This one starts off with a heavy thumpin drum kick and enough edits precisely placed for cross fader tricks before reaching the first breakdown. In the down section of the tune, you’ll hear a chanting ritual being held to enhance the dead to life. Can you place the sample? As the drums build, the body drops and you're attacked at all angles as the bass rolls out in a menacing style. There are many different bassline snippets precisely arranged hitting off one another making an upfront flow. As it changes up, things get darker and more raw as the track moves forward. Lots going on, but never messy. This tune is a prime example of solid production and a killer over any sound system!
AA: Pete Samplers & Mando From M.A.S.S. – Wear And Tear

A tick-tock cymbal ride and spooky lush pads begin this monster of a tune before you reach the atmospheric breakdown that only these two producers know how to put together. Strange noises and bass tones rise up as it builds into the drop of the body. Once you’re into the main section of the track, your ears will be in shock as the bass throbs like nothing you’ve ever heard over a speaker setup. As the track goes on, there’s a big switch up section of bouncy bass and edit work before you head back into the raw vibes of the main bass riff. This tune is written in a different form as it’s mainly all body with just an outro of moody bass and beats, proving once again that these two are forward thinkers in the studio.

'Wear & tear is a minimal, marching-bassline roller! Deep subs and deep sound scapes push this tune along for a bouncy bass-led ride'
'Raise the dead on the is one of the most frantic breaks tunes ever. D-ranged has raised the bar as well as the dead!!! I Cant wait for the vinyl as this is a tune I'm going to be playing for years!'
Anti-Science
Yet more quality from DBP - the Pete Samplers & Mando cut is definitly the one for us - great atmospherics and a b-line with more wobble than a truffle shuffle. The D-ranged cut is huge and will surely be smashing up dancefloors all over.
Big up to all involved.
Dirty South
Sickness from the D-Ranged, this is def one of my fav tunes from this guy, proper Friday 13th Deathcore
