Premiere: PETEL - Get Down Now [Top Board]

https://getphysicalmusic.lnk.to/GPM880

Bonafique step into the Get Physical spotlight with their ‘Monologue EP’.

Get Physical Music welcomes rising duo Bonafique with their label debut, the two-track ‘Monologue EP’. With a string of standout releases on labels like Maccabi House and Crosstown Rebels already under their belt, Bonafique now bring their genre-blending flair to Get Physical.

Opening track ‘Monologue’ rides a warm, groove-heavy bassline, accented by crisp percussion and lightly infectious vocals. The arrangement builds subtly, introducing a cascade of synth textures that add depth and lift without overpowering the track’s slick, indie dance charm. It’s a polished, versatile cut made with the dancefloor in mind.

‘Ego Trip’ turns up the energy with a driving, retro-tinged bassline and bright vocal fragments that bubble beneath shimmering arpeggiated chords. The track blends nostalgia with forward momentum, wrapping Bonafique’s signature sound in a bold, club-friendly package.

Already known for their refined, melodic approach to electronic music, Bonafique’s debut on Get Physical adds a new chapter to their upward trajectory. The ‘Monologue EP’ is playful, detailed, and ready to move bodies. It is an impressive addition to both the duo’s catalog and the label’s evolving roster.

Berlin act GHEIST have made a huge impression since releasing their debut record on Exploited in 2016. Now with regular appearances at Watergate and various summer festival gigs under their belts, three releases on Exploited and a couple with Sasha’s Last Night On Earth as well as a collaboration with HOSH ('The Watergate Affairs'), they are poised as one of the most promising acts of the current wave. This mesmerising new three-track EP only serves to strengthen their claim. 

'Axelot' begins by way of thuddy kicks knocking against the slightest of bleeps and gently techy percussion, with a slow-rising, muffled synth arpeggio teasing its way into life as the claps join in. Over the course of nine hypnotic minutes, we ebb and flow with the tracks subtle intricacies, a dramatic mood gently building. A mind-bending arp blurs the focus in the breakdown before we charge headlong back into the throbbing depths of the track.

'Kolibri' builds in similarly unhurried fashion, with bolder melodic focus that yields graceful strings, emotive chord patterns and some sublime delayed plucked refrains that take the essence of trancey emotion and boil it down to a sophisticated reduction. Just as the swells threaten to take the track into a frenzied crescendo, things are pulled back to keep the tension intact. Classy stuff. 

'Time' completes this sublime package by way of swirling chimes, throbbing monotone bass and analog bleeps, building up a heady wall of sound before a trademark GHEIST vocal lifts the track into unchartered territory. The sombre tone recalls Depeche Mode, and the idea to use the vocal in the breakdown alone only gives it more impact. It’s also a reminder that this trio bring an element of live electronica and instrumentation to their studio sessions.

Solomun: Thanx!

BBC 6 Thomas Ravenscroft Premiere: GHEIST - Axelot | Exploited

Shir Khan started Exploited in 2007. Exploited Rec now plays host to some wide-ranging and innovative electronic talent - including Adana Twins, Claptone, Budakid, Joyce Muniz, James Curd, Shir Khan (to name a few) - and its artists have been receiving numerous supportive spins from the likes of Solomun, Pete Tong, Soul Clap, Wolf&Lamb, Azari&III, Jesse Rose, Axel Boman and A-Trak.
This is serious dance music at it's most cutting edge with all the juice to really get you going. It's totally contemporary, innovative and has a chunky dirty feel. "Exploited" take you on an invigorating roller coaster ride back to your youth when you first listened to dance music with all the thrills and spills you so enjoyed about clubbing. It's heavy, exciting and special.
'"Exploited Records" is a seamless melting pot of varied styles that simply can't fail to please even the most discerning ears. Highlights here are plentyful. Not to be missed at any cost.' (Clash)
'Musical hybrids are truly the flavour of today, but few have managed to capture the atmosphere of an unpredictable microcosm of a night out on a recordlabel - until now. Shir Khan's label "Exploited" bottles the zeitgeist's giddy thrills with plenty of style and substance. 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)
