Claus Casper makes one hell of a return to Exploited Club with a dynamo for the dance floor designed to take the lid clean off the party.

Claus Casper adds to an extensive catalogue with releases for Johannes Albert’s Frank Music and Tensnake’s True Romance to name a few.

Here, he returns with the crystal clear intent to give DJs something to draw for when the party is at its absolute zenith. A snappy, muscular break is rooted to the ground by a tough 4/4 kick. This forms the bone structure of a groove that gradually whips up a frenzy, stacking exultation in layers as it rolls. 

A slick, agile bass line keeps energy pulsing in the low end as the track shifts through chapters that are marked by openings for a hands-in-the-air piano line that as the title suggests, is nothing short of glorious. 

Clever sequencing keeps intensity up as elements are whipped out and slapped back in - somehow feeling more and more jubilant as they return right until the end of a full throttle jam that's got 'tune of the night' written all over it.

California-based producer and DJ Max Styler returns to Diynamic with his "Don't Stop EP". The EP is an electrifying collection of three tracks, showcasing his unmatched ability to blend high-energy beats with melodic elements. The opener of the EP "Let Em' Know" takes listeners on a journey with its mysterious groove, slowly building in tension until it erupts. The EP's title track "Don't Stop", takes a slightly different approach, offering a smooth, grooving bassline that hypnotizes with its deep rhythm. The bassline and female voice pull you in, creating a trance-like state that keeps you locked into the track's relentless groove. And finally "Inferno" brings the drive back, closing out the release with a bang. This high-energy song reignites the vibe that runs through the entire EP and ensures its pulsating energy lasts long after the music stops.

Defected heavyweight Low Steppa returns alongside rising house name Capri with ‘Got The Funk’. No stranger to the London label, the DJ and producer from Brum has been a firm favourite at Defected shows worldwide for many years, from its flagship festivals to major club nights alike. His releases across the Defected family of labels have also seen major club play, from ‘This Is The Sound’ on DFTD to ‘Bullerengue’ with Crusy on Defected. For his latest label outing, Low Steppa collaborates with Capri, an artist whose tracks have been supported by Mark Knight, Sam Divine, Darius Syrossian and Dombresky, with more releases on tastemaker labels scheduled for 2025. Capri captured Low Steppa’s attention with a remix of his track ‘The Feeling’ on the influential producer’s Simma Black imprint, and now the two deliver ‘Got The Funk’, a seriously hypnotic belter set to do major club damage - already supported by the likes of Barry Can’t Swim, Eats Everything and Danny Howard.

Glory Breaks

Exploited Club welcome in power duo EMJIE and Emma B who bounce out 3 classy club cuts packed with groove, energy and panache.

Hailing from Brussels, EMJIE is catching heavy acclaim off the back of records for Get Physical and True Romance, as well as a recent B2B with Diplo, a radioshow for Keinemusik and bill-sharing with the likes of Dixon, LP Giobbi and Roman Fluegel. Her sound is characterised by stripped, Indie sonics, classic House and sleek, infectious vocals.

Working alongside her is Emma B - a Paris based producer and DJ also firmly on the ascent with releases on Shall Not Fade, BBC’s Sarah Story’s Stories and gigs at Rex Paris, Fabric London, Shelter Amsterdam, and After Caposile.
Highly skilled in the studio, her sound is steeped in dance floor literacy - informed by late 90s and early 2000s Minimal, Trance and Hard House.

'Ace Of Spades' kicks things off with a tight braid of organs and synths that duck and weave over immaculately crafted drums and a buoyant, proggy bass line that locks in a bubbly momentum from the get go. Vocals ring out, snare fills roll and harmonies fuse to form a fizzy, ecstatic vibe that nails a peak-flow tenor.

'My Favourite' follows up with neat, infectious drums that ooze snap and sass while a catchy synth and bass line climb together in lockstep. More vocals are woven in while harmonies thicken and a loose, free-flowing mood unfurls. Energy smoulders subtly shifting up the gears with a nice, mid-set intensity: chic, locked in and effortlessly sexy.

'The Bass You Need' finishes things off with an intricate, bongo-heavy drumtrack that's propelled by more swirling synths and spacious sound design. Deliciously trippy - the groove is heady and slinky recalling labels like Pagan and Swag from UK Tech House hay-day. Drums remain light on their feet - nimble and active whilst packing a satisfying wallop that'll make it an easy draw for DJs.'

Exploited Club welcome in esteemed duo Pig & Dan alongside production buddy Johan Mila. 

26 years in the game, Igor and Dan have covered a lot of ground in Dance music, amassing a venerable list of records, check points and performances as they've grown. Releases on Cocoon, True Soul, Drumcode and their own label ELEVATE, remixes for Basement Jaxx, playing alongside Carl Cox, spinning at Space standing out as jewels in a highly decorated crown.

Pig & Dan alongside Johan Mila ready some dance floor dynamite in the form of 'Living My Best Life' which kicks off with a neatly knitted drum track that sets the stage, punching and snapping in all the right places while a sunken bass line snakes in the sub region.

Filters open out, giving the bass a serrated edge as it charges up a brash, sassy mood alongside bold, zesty vocals before gears shift and the vibe absolutely rockets. Stabs, vocals and drums burst with alacrity across a vibrant, no-nonsense banger that gives an Italo soul a certain hi-def, Electro edge.

Johan Mila steps in with a viciously effective remix. He sets his drum machine pumping out a tight braid of snares, perc and busy hats while synths spread like butter across the groove.

A warped piano line courses into centre stage before ducking behind flexible sweeps and a ripe, nasty bass line. Teeth are bared in the break as things take a slightly sinister turn - low frequencies growling and gathering steam before letting loose in a wild, hedonic buzz.

On My Mind

The Man, The Myth, The Legend?

Dan McKie returns to his label, now celebrating 18 years of championing underground talent. Since day one, the imprint has been a launchpad for emerging artists, opening doors for names like Fehrplay, Thomas Gandey (Cagedbaby), Will Clarke, Sebastian Davidson, Max Freegrant, and many more.

Over the years, tracks from the label have earned support from some of the biggest names in the game including Eric Prydz, Carl Cox, Pete Tong, Steve Lawler, and countless others.

So, is Dan McKie himself a legend of the underground? Or perhaps more fittingly... a maker of legends.

Release date: 7th of November
Format: Vinyl & Digital

Stepping onto Up The Stuss for the first time, Anil Aras presents his ‘Through The Night’ EP, a record that captures the tension and release of the dancefloor after dark. Across four tracks, the Utrecht artist distills his trademark swing and subtle intensity into a body of work that feels alive in the moment yet timeless in its form. It’s a project that mirrors the transitions of night itself, shifting between lightness and weight, clarity and haze, while staying rooted in the grooves that have defined his journey to date.

A central figure within the Dutch scene and a long-time member of the revered SlapFunk collective, Aras has carved out a space within the house realm via his unrelenting energy behind the decks and a production style that bridges classic influences with forward-facing ideas. Releases on labels such as No Art, Hot Haus Recs, and the aforementioned SlapFunk have highlighted his instinct for crafting music that connects instantly on the floor, while his hybrid TR-909-driven DJ sets have taken him to international stages, including Glastonbury and throughout Ibiza.

With ‘Through The Night’, he brings that same approach to Up The Stuss, delivering a four-tracker that is both powerful yet subtle and versatile. Shaped for the dancefloor but rich in detail, the release captures the essence of his artistry - a dedication to groove, atmosphere, and the moments that unite dancers worldwide. It’s a debut that feels both natural and essential, adding a new shade to the label’s palette while opening another path for Aras’ evolving sound.

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)
