Manics, HoneyLuv - Perfect-Energy

Otis taylor - Live Your Live (Nico Pusch Bootleg Remix)

'Bag of Hopes' is about not knowing. 
It's about using all the knowledge you have to create an unknown. 
It's about being influenced by the punk-rock music you heard when you were sixteen, the first time you felt the bass at a club, and the excitement of growing up alongside the hopes and disco dreams of the future. 
It's about living to see the undreamable magic happen, or to see a broken dream lay at your feet.
The album is a hectic ride launched from astral depths of euphoric sounds into a psychedelic party in your favorite rock band's garage and ending with a mesmerizing repetitive anthem. 
It's a particular moment in time where the future, past, and present become an album.

Keisi - Frank Dollaz (Clement Meyer Remix)

Essential New Tune for Pete Tong at BBC Radio 1.

Claptone steps out of the shadows once again with ‘The Music Got Me’, an exciting new offering from the mysterious enigma with the golden mask. 'Music Got Me' by Claptone is an authorised cover version of 'Music Got Me' by Visual which has been approved and licensed by Unidisc the rights holder.
As you would expect of new Claptone, 'The Music Got Me’ is destined for late nights and packed clubs all over, such are the enchanting powers of this otherworldly beast. However this new offering goes further still. The achingly cool 80s NYC disco/postpunk flavour combines with a distinct Chicago bassline to offer an exciting glimpse of the eclectic, indie vibe of his debut artist album.

Claptone’s last two releases ‘No Eyes’ and ‘Ghost’ both topped the Beatport charts, the latter of which featured Clap Your Hands Say Yeah! (a collaboration we can only assume was arranged by some sort of séance). They went on to become enormous smashes on Berlin house label Exploited, earning the plaudits of the biggest DJs and setting Claptone off on a non-stop DJ tour across the globe.

It’s remarkable that the masked man has still found time in his tour schedule to deliver big remixes for the likes of Metronomy, The Pet Shop Boys, Rüfüs, Klaxons and Gregory Porter (which is currently No.1 in Beatport's Deep House charts).

2015 will also see Claptone embark on a run of ‘Immortal Live’ dates, a unique A/V experience which brings together a full set of Claptone creations (MIAMI ULTRA FESTIVAL – 29/3, BRUSSELS PIAS NITES – 4/4, GERMANY MELT! FESTIVAL 17/7, LONDON SW4 FESTIVAL – 29/8).

Description + Tracklist

✨ HOUSE – Full Set (44 min) ✨
This mix is pure motion — a 44-minute journey through funk, groove, and high-energy house that moves like a dancefloor story in four chapters. Starting with Starttraxx’s sharp radio edit and Le Babar’s cosmic touch, it builds through deep cuts and jackin’ beats into pure fire. Junior Sanchez drives the midpoint with raw house power, while DJ Wady and Dompe bring the pulse of tech and funk into focus. The back half gets dirtier and more hypnotic, with Josh Butler, Chesster, and Rufus Gibson locking in relentless energy before closing on Alien Radio’s Dompé Remix — a high-octane finale that leaves no doubt you’ve been through a proper HOUSE session.

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)
