The ever-inventive procurer of atmospheric electronic beauty Budakid strikes back with another glorious single for Exploited. 
‘Walkman’ is captivating from the very first moment, where spine-tingling bleepy FX whirr over a shimmering hi-hat groove and filtered melodics. A funk-driven bassline melody slams in with the loose disco percussive groove, and in the distance a lush chord progression teases. In weaves a wavering, simple-yet-potent analog synth hook that phases and filters beautifully as pads gently sweep up. It’s a heady, joyous affair, broken up by a beautiful breakdown where gated synths lead the way. A simply majestic composition. 
With a previous release on Diynamic and new upcoming music on Moscoman’s Disco Halal and Watergate Records, Budakid is surely an artist to watch.

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.

'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)
