Danish duo Laid Back made a most surprising comeback to the clubs in 2010 with
Cocaine cool". Not that they had ever been really forgotten: Their electro pop
classic white horse remained a sure shot in clubs for the thirty years after
its release 30 years back and a constant inspiration to boatload of diverse
artists from techno to hip-hop. cocaine cool was recorded at the same session
but the ironic vocals ridiculing label executives blowing up their frail ego
with the chemical substance were deemed to risquee at that time, so the
recording collected dust in some box until last year. Bostons Soul Clap
another duo hailed as one of the hotest things in clubland known for their
eclectic funk-rooted taste. They opt for a cool sparser arrangement leaving out
the white horse"-like chords. A loose, dry electro funk beat, hpynotic one-note
synth, few dub effects and additional vocoder vocals do the trick bravorously.
Besides an instrumental version theres also a harder jacking dub take sounding
like early chicago house edits. And while the boys are add it they also
re-edited another huge one from Laid Back: baker man that managed the unlikely
balancing act of not only hitting it bigtime in the charts but also in the
emerging balearic scene.

Laid Back - Cocaine Cool (Soul Clap Vocal mix)

Louis Austen - Hoping (Herbert Remix)

This is my very first mixtape — a soulful ride through house grooves and spacey feels. After many magical DJ nights in Paris and growing requests for mixtape, I finally recorded this mix. Over the past year, DJing has become one of my favorite forms of expression. I cherish those shared moments of energy on the dance floor.

Whether you’re dancing, dreaming, or simply vibing, I hope you find a little piece of yourself in this mix.

More to come.
Follow for more — and thank you for listening.
With love,

THUMP: ‘Back in 2007, the born and bred Berliner Shir Khan began Exploited, a hybrid record label boasting an impressive roster of artists, and a heavy, deep house sound. Eight years later, Exploited is a staple in the music libraries of underground house fans worldwide. It’s an exciting time for the creatives behind the brand, as their name has expanded to include Exploited Ghetto, a sub-label that promises the same bouncy club tunes the project was initially founded on.

DEEPHOUSE AMSTERDAM: ‘The German house label Exploited, which is known for great releases and great parties alike, has announced the release of a new sublabel, according to Mixmag. Exploited, the magnificent label from Berlin, can surely be called one of the leading labels of contemporary house music. With a string of excellent releases during the past few years, the label is now branching out into Exploited Ghetto. The new sublabel will focus on bringing new acts into the scene. Much of what the label does will be focused on one-off releases, from people yet not in the Exploited roster.’

FAZE MAG: ‘Exploited avancierte über die Jahre zu einer der ersten Adressen im Bereich zeitgenössischer House Musik und diente Künstlern wie Adana Twins, Claptone oder Doctor Dru als Sprungbrett zu einer steilen, internationalen Karriere. Aber auch Shir Khan selbst profitierte vom Hype um sein Label und wurde so im Zuge dessen zu einem global gefragten DJ. Wenn es um deutsche Houselabels geht, ist Exploited schon lange kein Geheimtip mehr. Mittlerweile hat sich das Berliner Imprint zu einer stetigen Erscheinung in Charts und Plattenkoffern avanciert. Nun steht mit Exploited Ghetto ein Sublabel an.
