Rampage Riddim (2013) – Satish Mathurin| Courtney Louis

Rampage Riddim leans straight into the hard-driving Saint Lucian power-soca lane, with Ricky T’s “Mass Attack” doing the heavy lifting and Mongstar and Ambi’s “Merry Go Round” giving the set its breezier hook. Satish Mathurin and Courtney Louis keep the arrangement tight and punchy, with that road-ready stomp that sat nicely beside the pair’s other 2013 Carnival work rather than chasing anything overly polished. Platinum George’s “Soca Platinum Style” sits in the middle with a neat wink at the genre itself, while the whole release feels aimed at the kind of jump-up energy that carried through Lucian season that year. It’s a compact three-track riddim, but it fits neatly into the Stratosphere Muzic/Curty Louis catalogue as one of those local carnival drivers built for fast rotation and even faster crowd response.
