it’s been just a few months ago, rampa carved his last ep-notch into the keinemusik-release-tally. but here he goes again, delivering his second km-offering this year, an almost prophetically headlining track called “newborn soul”. this tune virtually is the score to the current situation of its creator. a lurking, tension building piece that’s coping without a kickdrum for more than 50 % of it’s running time, just to place it in floor-shaking boost in the exact perfect moment. a percussion and synthflavoured build-up somewhere between tool-characteristics and stylish peaktime-emphasis, that’s rising like phoenix from the ashes. “mascha” on the flip can be appreciated as a classic rampa. analogue sounding, washed out intro, irresistible tribal-grooves including analogue filter and delay-rides, percussive cushioning and folkloristic chants that will invoke nothing else but rowdy floor-ecstasy in this context.
