The Pleasure District label returns for the its fifth release, the stable  was previously home to Heart Drive aka dBridge and Kid Drama but the gates have been opened for Fracture and vocalist Lucie La Mode, with one collaboration with the aforementioned Kid Drama. The release opens with Remember The Time Feat Lucie La Mode, the track itself is reminiscent of a soundtrack work by Vangelis whilst La Mode’s vocal adds a warmth to proceedings. The second track is a collab with Kid Drama and marries some very disparate elements in the vein of previous Pleasure District releases, keeping the musical pallette open and yet achieving cohesion at the same time.

The creative output of Ben Westbeech is difficult to quantify. As a singer, producer, and DJ, the "Jack"-jocking polymath is on a few different levels at once. You can now add 'proponent of weirdo analog house' to that list, as his Dim Sum EP, to be released on AUS Music, is three tracks of progressively-minded 4x4 tunes that will bring some much needed cerebral energy to the dancefloor when released on April 27.

Modern Soul is the first Vandal LTD' compilation, represented by worldwide renowned producers, showcasing the soulful side of drum and bass.
<br>
<br>Release Date 27 July 2015 
<br>


Dj Chap - Life (Original Mix)

The second of two compilations collecting the work of Afternoons In Stereo, brought together to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the debut Afternoons In Stereo album, RETROSPECTIVE puts the focus on the dancefloor and the EDM side of the artist's output. Featuring tracks that span the entire catalogue the collection takes in electro-funk, disco, house, nu-latin breaks, drum & bass, and ambient downtempo. While aspects of the jazz- influence on the producer are never far away, we hear a harder edge to the productions collected here -- work more inline with the nightclub than the lounge. RETROSPECTIVE presents an opportunity to hear work by the producer that, when collected side-by-side, reflects a very specific aspect of his musical intent.

14 tracks in all including two brand-new tracks, exclusive to this release, as well as two Alternate Mixes of tracks from the vaults. Also in the playlist is the YouTube hit SOUL SUGAR, the video for which has garnished over 6 MILLION HITS since it's release two years ago!! It continues to be an astonishingly popular track and video, and shows no signs of slowing down!

Featuring original artwork by GVD and analog mastering by Angelos Timewarp Stoumpos.

Roman Flügel - Teenage Engineering (STW Premiere)

It is already release number 24 for Luca Agnelli´s Etruria Beat , what a long and exciting journey thru sounds . Along the way , the label had the chance to discover a few new talents and help develop them . Amongst them , Venezia resident Bastinov .  For his second release with ETB , the young italian producer offers 4 amazing tracks : The ep starts with Prisma , a strong tune with a huge analogue synth repeating itself 
over a swing 909 beat , until a dreamy pad hits the break to release some more action . This tune will be featured on Sven Vath´s Sound of the Season 16 on Cocoon ) . B2 sees Andre Kronert , the man behind so many labels ( most of them are a secret )on the remix duty of the title song  . Andre chose to reinterpret the original in a very minimal way : an hypnotic chord , delays , a very strong Basic Channel influentced beat with a pad coming and going .
The flip side starts with Sphere : a solid tune based on a ring Modulator synth sounds  thru tape delays floating over a very energetic groove disturbed by strong claps and effects . To end this story , 
Bastinov delivers Triangle which has a very techno flavour from the beginning . The beat is heavy , the kick is delayed , the hat is strong . After a few minutes a Detroit influenced chord  develops and gives the tune a unexpected twist , the forefathers of techno are in the place . The music keeps on evolving with some classic strings and effects . A very strong release again for Etruria Beat thanks to our very own Bastinov !!

Wormfinger - Transmission [PHLTRX021]

Very few artists have influenced the sound of house and techno as much as Roman Flügel.  Having been active since the early 90’s under various aliases, few have been revered so widely as a DJ, live performer, producer, remixer, intellectual and record label owner.  The record labels he helped found, Ongaku, Klang and Playhouse, are pivotal imprints in the electronic music scene, and his ability to gracefully incorporate and master most styles of 4/4 has seen him create a range of genres from techno, house, electro, ambient, IDM, downtempo, and acid house.  Respected both as a solo artist and collaborator, this veteran of the scene has just ticked the label’s bucket list with an incredible double vinyl for Hypercolour. 
6 tracks of highly polished techno/electronica cover a range of tempos and styles on ‘Monday Brain’, a double pack vinyl to be released this October.  Flügel demonstrates his ability to morph his sound with the times, and displays his breadth of sound design magnificently over the release. 
Cosmic IDM sensibilities are explored on EP opener ‘Teenage Engineering’, building in harmony and texture, and a fine example of Flügel’s melodic sound, whilst ‘Make It Happen’ captures more psychedelic touches over a solid groove.
‘Man Sees The Face God Sees The Heart’ goes as deep as the title suggests, rhythmic sounds melodically ride over minimal beats and luscious bass in a stirring slice of modern electronica, whilst ‘Church Of Dork’ wigs out like the very best Chicago house records, its synth motif worming around the jacked up beats.  ‘Picnic For Players’ comes ready with blissful and melancholic riffs, dipped in warm reverb for a classic sounding piece, and the EP closes in fine style with the shadowy ‘Vegetarian Leather Jackets’.

Even after two decades of music production and arrangement, Flügel shows no sign of dipping in the quality control department, and ‘Monday Brain’ is a testament to this producer who is clearly heading into the prime of his career, displaying an effortless knack of creating timeless dance.

Taken from the labels next EP, the EFN Sound Library, we are excited to premiere this track from NY beatsmith Acemo Speaking about the track “"Made this on iPod headphones at first, then went home to test it out on monitors. I didn't really realize that people fucked with the song till I played it in Cincinatti and people were screaming at me on the dancefloor. Since then it's had it's had home in mostly all of my DJ sets throughout the summer and fall.” And probably a few more DJs to come too! Press play on this killer mechanical beauty.

Matt Mauldin AKA Wheez-ie has been exploring the far corners of footwork for years, first via releases on the likes of Fool's Gold and Trouble & Bass and now via his own Southern Belle Recordings, which launched in 2014 with DJ Rashad's posthumous We On 1 EP. Originally begun with the intention of showcasing Wheez-ie's own productions, Southern Belle's second release now comes in the form of his Missed Connections EP, out November 13th and featuring the choice cut debuted here, "OG Deth."

"OG Deth" is a thumping slice of footwork on an EP full of familiar samples, displaying a deep knowledge of genre tropes while also subverting them. The chattering vocal cuts through thunderous subs and scattershot percussion hits insistently like a stranger pounding on your front door, all making for a frantic but addictive listen.

If you're in Paris, catch Wheez-ie playing our Revolution 808 event on November 4 at Petit Bain, alongside DJ Funk, Feadz b2b Crystalmess, Toxe, Sevdaliza, Lil Jabba, and many more:

Out Now

Max Graef & Glenn Astro - 'Magic Johnson'

Making her DJing debut at New York's MoMA PS1 and her live debut at Unsound Festival, Jlin has already been placed firmly on the map as 2015's of the most exciting producers. Now she returns with her second release of the year, with her four-track Free Fall EP.

The EP sees a stealthy transition from her previous Dark Energy material. Footwork-inspired polyrhythms, cartoon and video game samples, synthesised brass stabs –  Free Fall spans it all, with EP closer "Nandi" being our pick of the bunch. Falling slightly outside the sonic realms of the tracks which precede it, "Nandi" is the product of new experimentation embarked on by Jlin. A more poised sound which isn't scared to go a little deeper, to our delights.

Free Fall drops fully on 27 November via Planet Mu.

Weakness

Exit Records is at forefront of electronic music, constantly pushing the envelope in terms of aesthetic and execution.
Label owner dBridge strikes a careful balance between releasing music that serves a purpose for dancers and thinkers alike. The roster of artists involved in the label is allowed express themselves as they see fit with only one stipulation; pushing the genre forward.
The Exit Records club nights are typically riotous affairs- they stand as a mix of the most cutting-edge music crossed with a firm eye on the dancefloor, from stages at festivals to residencies at clubs across the world, the events are known to sell out.
As the label enters its 15th year of existence a confidence in sound and direction has come to the fore and this is what cements Exit Records as a go-to label for those inside and out of the genre.
