No idea who wrote this EP, however I played the b side of this on one of my last jungletrain radio shows. that side is a great track for mixing, with a drop full of absurd pitched amen snare rolls that sound absolutey MENTAL&#8230; after that first drop though, the rest of the track chills out a bit, with the music sort of working its way into more solid chopped breaks.  In contrast, this A side &#8220;Give it Up&#8221; is a bit more consistently crazy throughout.  Mega chopped\/delayed amen and cold sweat breakbeats fire away on top of some   atmospheric noises and vocal samples. A brooding synth drops in partway through, before it resolves back to the crazy breaks-plus sub combo. The track as a whole feels like it could use more midrange, but still sounds good when I blast it at home (haven&#8217;t heard it on a system).
