Quickly following up the last, instant sell-out smash, Shir Khan's infamous "Black Jukebox" series hit us with the 12th edition. Introducing anonymous project Aussteiger who gets things bouncing with the Summer house monster, "Bangbao". Lush filter sweeps, twinkling keys and powerful bass are order of the day here as the producer works his magic on one of the sunniest grooves we've heard this year. "Return" keeps that outdoor terrace flavour but plunges us deep into the twilight, tribal drums and deep electronics locking us into its hypnotic recess. Martin Lewis contributes a seriously fun and summery version of "Now That We Found Love", utilizing glorious xylophones and horns throughout the melody and letting it roll out with aplomb. Finally, we get the cheeky "Do It" edit which combines hypnotic congas with funky guitar licks and a sun-burnt, Latin energy to create a sizzling brew of hot dancefloor energy. Great stuff! Limited Vinyl. Move quick!

Shir Khan Presents Black Jukebox 12 | Exploited

Bonnie Spacey's sound is one characterised by unique contrasts and combinations with a root interest in organic instrumentation and a keen interest in the deeper shades of Disco, Techno and Electroclash being melded effectively in her productions and DJ sets.

Now - the french born and Berlin based maven encapsulates her knack for cogent contrasts across a heated 2-track EP for Exploited Club that weaves between Samba, Disco, Italo and House.

'Samba Disco' stamps a dominant foot on the floor as ripe, sturdy drums provide a stout foundation for pitch shifting delays and a searing hot synth climb. The vibe is arresting and highly spiced as the track continues to charter ever-elevating altitude in a manner that makes it easy to picture decadent dancefloor chaos.

'Light Shadow' follows up with a no-nonsense House groove that glows lucent with richly layered keys and an effortlessly sexy vocal. As is the case with the track's counterpart, the sounds are thick and palpable and the mood is intoxicating.

Chords burst with colour while pitch bending soars and energy courses towards a head-twisting breakdown that sends out more voltage to the floor and marks the closing chapter of an electrifying record that bears a distinctly Bonnie Spacey sheen.

Shir Khan Presents Black Jukebox 12 (Preview) | Exploited

Damon Jee is back on Polaris.This time, he presents ‘Memories’, a significant Ep composed with Demian, a Damon's old friend and brother who sadly passed away recently. Demian was a lovely person with a big heart and he was also a very good DJ and producer, with some great releases on Kompakt and Correspondant, to name but a few.
This ep is a tribute to Demian, may his soul rest in peace.

We start with ‘Memories’, a featuring track vibrant square waves and perfectly harmonised electronic composition, immediately mesmerizing the listener with its fascinating leitmotif and arpeggios, serving as a musical testament to a trip beyond time.

We continue the story with the timeless “A night in 2006”, a track that is a true explosion of emotions and flavors, an impressive weapon full of organic instruments and nuances that has a clear objective: to make you dance.

Sincopat is excited to present a fearless return from Cabizbajo, solidifying his position at the forefront of Mexico’s electronic music scene.

The release opens with “White Eyes,” where Cabizbajo crafts a hauntingly hypnotic groove that pulses with energy and ethereal tension. This track exemplifies minimalist design, with each sound carefully chosen to draw the listener into a moody and immersive experience.
Next, Waltervelt offers a reinterpretation of “White Eyes,” taking the original and transforming it into a spacious, dub-influenced groove. This version unfolds with deep atmospheric pressure and elegant restraint.

The journey continues with “Hive Mind,” a cerebral, percussive exploration of collective consciousness through rhythm and texture. This track is raw, precise, and irresistibly physical— ideal for the darker hours on the dance floor.

Club Kids closes the release with an ode to rave-era rebellion: punchy, stabs in a track that oozes charisma and club nostalgia while staying undeniably forward-thinking.

Enjoy!

INCOMING : Dina Summer - Promise Me feat. Curses (Boys' Shorts Remix) #IptamenosDiscos
Release date : 28/05/2025
BUY :  https://bfan.link/promise-me-boys-shorts

After the wild success of Dina Summer’s first bouquet of remixes from their latest album Girls Gang, they return with fresh cuttings.

First up are Boys’ Shorts—the Greek DJ/producer duo comprised of Vangelis (formerly of LAGASTA) and electronic artist Tareq. The pair have toured Europe and the US, performing at some of the most renowned club venues such as Berghain and E1. Their hyped, dance-ready sets blend elements of disco, slow techno, and acid house into a unique and distinct sound.

They take Promise Me and rip it from its roots as an early goth, coldwave track steeped in archaic gothic romance, then prune and propagate it into a futuristic house track—replanting it in a digital dimension. Boys’ Shorts use the chorus as the core element, and as Curses’ luxurious, decadent vocals unfurl, they spruce it up into a dance edit with shimmering snares, a bouncier bassline, and 4/4 drum patterns reminiscent of the Roland 808.

Released on Iptamenos Discos as part of the Gils Gang Deluxe version.

Jannowitz Records once again pushes boundaries with its latest Indie Dance release, a collaborative gem from MMYYLO, SNYL, and David LeSal. This tracks are a hypnotic blend of dark groove, retro flair, and emotional depth—seamlessly fusing analog synth textures with crisp modern production. From the very first beat, the guys builds a cinematic atmosphere, driven by pulsating basslines and airy pads that nod to the golden age of synthpop, while still feeling fresh and club-ready. MMYYLO’s signature melodic tension pairs beautifully with SNYL’s rhythmic sensibility, and David LeSal rounds it out with subtle but powerful sound design that keeps the energy evolving throughout the track. There’s a sense of storytelling in this release—it’s not just danceable, it’s immersive. Perfect for late-night sets, festival sunsets, or introspective solo listening, this release adds another strong chapter to Jannowitz’s ever-growing catalog of genre-defying dance music. Verdict: A beautifully constructed journey through the darker shades of Indie Dance—emotionally charged, rhythmically tight, and endlessly playable.

This is dance music hybridism in all its most glorious forms, and Shir Khan is an expert at making square pegs fit round holes.' (DJ-Mag)
'"Exploited Records" boss Shir Khan has been gaining a lot of acclaim recently, and deservedly so - as he has shown us the high quality, diversity and forward-thinking nature of his label. Engaging, riveting and diverse.' (Data Transmission)
