A Million Days

Paul Kalkbrenner - A Million Days (TTG's Aus Liebe Zu Meiner Frau Und Den Schildkröten Mix)

Here comes the second instalment in our ongoing anniversary series, celebrating twenty years of Stil vor Talent (how time flies...) via a 12-releases-a-year cascade drop. From January and until the end of the year we'll be serving up a special revisit of a classic tune from our back catalogue, courtesy of label alums and friends alike. For this second iteration, Ede & Deckert give their own interpretation of label boss Oliver Koletzki's head-turning classic 'Hypnotized' (feat. Fran). Breathing playful chutzpah and funky oneirism into this mesmeric roller, the Berlin-based duo has us zoning out to a cottony hybrid all in silky pad membranes, stealth bass moves and minutely chiselled drumwork. A damn fine slice of abstract techno hoodoo and jagged dream house vibrations rolled into one anthemic tune, the track evolves from low-slung 4x4 ambient-ness to heavy-lidded electro pop with seamless ease; perfect for transitioning effortlessly from peak-time euphoria to carefree, after-ready elation.

HMWL Premiere: Oliver Koletzki - Hypnotized (Ede & Deckert 20yrs SVT Remix) [Stil vor Talent]

CLAPTONE UNVEILS NEW SINGLE ‘DEAR LIFE’
 
The man with the golden scooped beak rises again with ‘Dear Life’ the first single from his debut album, coming later this year.

Dear Life is the next chapter for Claptone taken from his first full length which is set to drop in Autumn 2015. The mysterious enigma with the golden mask has gone from strength to strength of late, following an acclaimed BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix, a Beatport chart-topping smash remix for Gregory Porter and an incredible live show at the Miami Ultra Music Festival.
 
The single however breaks new ground for Claptone as he delves deeper into songwriting. This time he is reunited with French singer Jaw (1/3 of production trio dOP) with whom he worked on ’No Eyes’ which went on to became a big record back in 2013 on Exploited. In new offering ‘Dear Life’ they've created a spellbinding track which sounds as good on your stereo at home as it does on the dancefloor.

The masked figure recently shared teaser 'The Music Got Me', the first glimpse of the album and a track which went on to reach the top 5 on Beatport’s deep house chart, as did B-side Forest of Love. For the club heads, Claptone and Jaw deliver a second cut ‘Secret Lover’, a track which is packed with raw funk for your dance floors and a highlight in his recent Essential Mix.

Exploited Rec promises to strip the wallpaper from the walls of your home stereo.
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)
