Asian Dan Interview: DJ Rampage
1. Who is RAMPAGE?
Rampage is one person, Eddie is my real name. I am a DJ/producer/remixer from the southside of Chicago.
2. What are some of your influences? What was your first musical memory?
Some of my influences include lots of old Chicago house, ghetto house, anything with lots of bass, 90s rave techno, video games from Sega and Nintendo and many old horror films.
My first musical memory would be hearing my family listen to lots of different music from disco to R&B to salsa to oldies to freestyle to house and so on. That’s what basically made me love music.
Those wonderful Chicago boys, Hey Champ hooked Asian Dan up with an exclusive Minimix. It is a wonderful journey into their musical minds. Supertramp! Check out a little Asian Dan Interview with Hey Champ.

Asian Dan Interviews: Hey Champ
1. Who is Hey Champ? How would you describe your music?
–Saam (vox, guitar), Jonathan (drums, vox), Pete (synths)
–We are a pop band with influences from rock, electro & disco.
2. What are your influences? Musical or otherwise? What are your first musical memories?
–We’ve all played instruments as long as we can remember. We also suffered from lisps as children and that probably contributed to the amount of time spent on music due to the related social marginalization.
Hey Champ are a Chicago band that are buddies with France’s Scenario Rock. They are an 80s tinged, 70s songwriting sounding band that are now Lupe approved. You may also remember them for their fantastic remix of Scenario Rock’s “Both Gotta Move On”. Maybe Lupe will sign them like Pharrell signed Chester French. Check out their new track “Cold Dust Girl”, catchy, synth pop goodness 🙂
